The History
This beautiful piece comes from the Art Deco Era! The Art Deco Era is famous for being the \"Gatsby\" or \"Roaring Twenties\" Era. A lot of gorgeous and timeless designs in jewelry came out of this period.
During the Art Deco Period jewelers often made jewelry upon custom order, this would often take weeks to months to completely craft by hand.
Mid Century Jewelry was all about being big and bold in design and structure. This beautiful jewelry was inspired by the glamorous nature of the Hollywood regency era.
Retro jewelry refers to pieces created in the 1940’s and 1950’s, a period during which jewelry designers were largely influenced by the changes accompanying World War II. As the name of the period suggests, these designs reflect an infusion of futuristic vision with elements inspired by preceding periods, encompassing a variety of gemstones, shapes, and materials.
During the Art Nouveau & Art Deco Eras, Moonstone was brought into jewelry by designers such as Tiffany\'s & Rene Lalique. Moonstone is often symbolized with the moon due to the Opalescent hue that it gives off that reminds the viewer of the moon peering through a thin layer of clouds.
