July 28, 2013 / Engagement Rings
Has your partner tried to tell you that she has her heart set on an “Art Deco” style engagement ring? Possibly you are feeling a bit lost as to where you should start!
The term ‘Art Deco’ is used to describe a particular style of jewellery that came to life during the 1920’s. A monumental period in the history of art and design, the era of Art Deco has and still does influence many artists, architects and designers.
So, what is an Art Deco engagement ring you may wonder? Understanding a little about the period of Art Deco design will help you in your hunt for the perfect art deco ring for your partner.
Original antique Art Deco rings are very rare to come by and with any antique jewellery purchase you should always be aware of the potential fragile nature of the piece and the up-keep involved for the life of the ring. The next and perhaps the best option would be to draw from this wealth of inspiration that Art Deco offers and create your own inspired design.
Just remember guys, there are NO rules! Whatever you decide, your jeweller will help you come up with your own stunning Art Deco piece to win the heart of your loved one!
