The Story: Art Deco is an artistic movement that emerged in the 1910s and reached its height in the 1920s, eventually declining in the 1930s and 1940s. Its name derives from the 1925 World Exhibition titled “International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts.” The Art Deco movement is characterized by its geometric designs reminiscent of industry (screws, bolts, gears). This yellow gold piece with curved motifs reminiscent of a seashell, aligns more closely with the architectural codes of the movement more than with its jewelry designs. The opulence of yellow gold and the shell-like patterns were widespread on building facades during this period.
