Vintage Vows: The Romance of a 1920s Art Deco Engagement Ring

Original Vintage Art Deco ring white gold diamonds and sapphires Antique jewelry object group: ring Condition: very good condition - (more info on our condition scale) Country of origin: unknown Style: Art Deco - Art Deco is an eclectic artistic and design style which had its origins in Paris in the first decades of the 20th century. The style originated in the 1920s and continued to be employed until after World War II. The term "art deco" first saw wide use after an exhibition in 1966, referring to the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes that was the culmination of high-end style modern in Paris. Led by the best designers in the decorative arts such as fashion, and interior design, Art Deco affected all areas of design throughout the 1920s and 1930s, including architecture and industrial design, as well as the visual arts such as painting, the graphic arts and film. At the time, this style was seen as elegant, glamorous, functional and modern. - See also: Art Deco or more info on styles Style specifics: Abstract motives and geometrical forms are quite typical for the Art Deco period. Art Deco moved away from the soft pastels and organic forms of its style predecessor, Art Nouveau, and embraced influences from many different styles and movements of the early 20th century, including Neoclassical, Constructivism, Cubism, Modernism, and Futurism. Its popularity peaked in Europe during the Roaring Twenties and continued strongly in the United States through the 1930s. Although many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, Art Deco was purely decorative. Period: ca. 1920 - (events & facts of this era, poetry of this era, fashion of this era) Material: 14K white gold (touchstone tested) - (more info on precious metals) Diamond(s): One old European cut diamond with an estimated weight of ± 0.60 ct. 14 brilliant cut diamonds with an estimated weight of ± 0.42 ct. Six single brilliant cut diamonds (also called 8/8) 0.09 ct. Total diamond count: 21 pcs. Total diamond weight: approx. 1.11 crt. with an average colour and clarity: H/J, vs/si. - All diamond weights, color grades and clarity are approximate since stones are not removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. Also we have all diamonds screened by the IJGC - lab (www.ijgc-worldwide.com) for whether they are natural or synthetic, and all diamonds in this jewel are 100% guaranteed to be natural! Precious stones: Four sapphires . We did not check if the sapphires are lab produced or not as this information has no influence on the value of this jewel. Natural sapphires and lab produced sapphires were both used in this era, rather more for their effect than for their intrinsic value. with an estimated weight of ± 0.12ct. - All color stone weights are approximate since stones are not removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. Birthstones: Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April and sapphire for September.
