This elegant Art Deco necklace, crafted circa 1930, embodies the refined geometric designs of the period. Fashioned in 14K white gold, the pendant features a striking old European-cut diamond at its base, weighing approximately 0.4 carats, surrounded by intricate millegrain beading for added texture and sparkle.

The elongated drop, measuring 3 cm, is further embellished with smaller round-cut diamonds, accentuating the streamlined elegance of the piece.

The pendant is suspended from a trace anchor link chain, measuring 42 cm (16.5 inches), designed to sit gracefully along the collarbone. The chain is stamped with "585," confirming its 14K gold composition, and the necklace weighs a total of 3.03 grams.

In excellent condition, this necklace is a testament to the timeless appeal of Art Deco jewellery. It offers understated glamour, perfect for both special occasions and everyday elegance.

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.
