A 1930s era appropriate style of a 1.11ct old European cut diamond, natural blue sapphires and an array of accent halo diamonds to complete this breathtaking ring! When considering the Art Deco style, one of the first images that comes to mind is geometric shapes. This style utilized a variety of simple shapes like circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and other polygons. Designers combined these shapes to create interesting patterns while incorporating zigzags and sunbursts. Art Deco is an eclectic style influenced by Egypt, Greece, Africa, and China. Artistic creations evoke images of machines that represented the advancement of technology during that era. Patterns feature sharp angles rather than smooth curves, and symmetry was an important factor in many designs. Artists used rich, vivid colors that contrasted each other within a single design. Bold, abstract, and lavish patterns were popular and represented the societal changes during the 1920s and 30s.
