Art Deco jewellery is characterised by geometric lines, stylised symmetry, and a strong influence from industrial design, prevalent during the 1920s and 1930s.

Traditional construction typically involves precious metals such as platinum or white gold, often paired with hand-cut diamonds featuring characteristic facets from the period.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-carved settings, characteristic old mine or old European cut stones with slightly higher crowns, and appropriate period hallmarks.

Such pieces can be incorporated into modern wardrobes by pairing them with minimalist attire to let the historic craftsmanship remain the focal point.

Store pieces individually in lined boxes to prevent scratching, and clean gently using warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh ultrasonic cleaners on older settings.
