The different styles of Art Deco Rings

Colourful Cocktail rings

In the 1920’s, bold, abstract and colourful forms were in vogue. The use of brightly coloured stones was high, especially semi-precious stones such as aquamarines, citrines and zircons.

Which meant the use of diamonds was used more to create a contrast with darker stones.
