The story: Taking its name from the 1925 World’s Fair 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). White gold, platinum, chromium and silver are also characteristic of the period, during which yellow gold, previously highly prized by jewellers, was substituted for these “white” materials, more so in the industrial aesthetics of the movement. As for Zircon, long known as the “Matura diamond”, it is often substituted for the diamond from which it borrows its brilliance. One of the birthstones of the month of December, in the Middle Ages, zircon was believed to bring honor, wealth and wisdom.
