Art Deco jewelry including art deco engagement rings lasted
from the 1920's up to the Second World War.
As the world became smaller
after the First World War, jewelry embraced different ancient and
historical styles from Chinese, Japanese, Indian and most importantly
Egyptian. With the stock market crash of 1929, the exuberance of Art
Deco jewelry waned and the Second World War was its death knell.
The architectural and decorative style from which Art Deco Engagement
Rings adopted their look was known as Art Deco and derived its
name from L'Exposition Internationale des Arts Dératifs et Industriels
Modernes or The Exposition of Decorative Arts and Modern Manufactures
held in Paris in 1925.
Characterized by its highly stylized geometric shapes and the strong use of symmetry, the Art Deco period used bold color, in particular black and white, especially evident in Art Deco Jewelry. The stark contrast of platinum combined with diamonds or crystals was widely seen throughout the 1920's although rubies, sapphires, emeralds, turquoise and coral were also used extensively.
