Yard gained renown for exceptional materials and innovative design, elevating Art Deco with bold geometric compositions of coloured stones and diamonds. Celebrated in the 1920s, he also pioneered the repurposing of antique gems into striking modern settings.
'Rather than regarding inclusions in coloured stones as harmful, in small sizes and numbers that do not in any way detract from their beauty, they should be regarded as adding to desirability, for they provide identifying characteristics.'
