FAQs

Art Deco jewellery, prominent from the 1920s to the 1930s, is characterised by geometric precision, symmetrical designs, stylised motifs, and the prominent use of platinum and white metals alongside diamonds.

Pieces from this period frequently utilise platinum or white gold settings, often enhanced with milgrain detailing, openwork filigree, and hand-cut stones such as old European or pear-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-correct hand-cut facets, hand-forged or cast metalwork showing signs of genuine age and wear, and frequently carry maker marks or purity hallmarks consistent with the early 20th century.

This piece pairs effortlessly with both contemporary minimalist outfits and vintage-inspired ensembles, serving as a striking focal point when worn alone or stacked with simple, low-profile bands.

To preserve integrity, clean gently using warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoid harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners, and have the prong settings professionally inspected annually to ensure stone security.
