Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

A striking Art Deco-era diamond necklace, crafted in solid 18K white gold and stamped with the French eagle’s head hallmark. Dating to the 1930s, this piece embodies the clean geometry and precision characteristic of the Art Deco movement.

The pendant features a graduated drop of three bezel-set diamonds, articulated for movement. At the base sits a bright 1-carat cushion-cut diamond. Above it, two Old European-cut diamonds weigh 0.4 carats each, bringing the total diamond weight to approximately 1.8 carats. The stones exhibit very good clarity with prominent open culets, enhancing their brilliance.

Suspended from an 18K white gold chain, the necklace measures 50cm (19.5”) and has a substantial weight of 11.43 grams.

A refined example of 1930s French jewellery, in superb condition despite its significant age.
ART DECO JEWELLERY - 1920-1935

The Art Deco period of jewellery, which emerged in the 1920s and lasted until the mid-1930s, was all about glamour and luxury. Characterised by bold, geometric designs that emphasised symmetry and sleekness, jewellery incorporated gemstones such as onyx, lapis lazuli, and diamonds. The discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb in 1922 also led to a revived interest in Egyptian motifs. The use of platinum and white gold became popular during this period, and gemstone cuts such as the baguette and emerald cuts were favoured.
Art Deco jewellery is particularly sought after for its classic style that’s unmistakably its own. Ravensbury Antiques offers Art Deco jewellery that has panache, from ornate linear patterns to standout pieces that grab attention for all the right reasons.
