These days, modern design and minimalism often get lumped together. But when modern design first entered the mainstream during the art deco movement of the 1920s and ’30s, it was anything but minimal. With its bold, industrial-inspired lines, gleaming metals and saturated color palettes, art deco represented exuberance and glamour. It was also a celebration of the future — an aesthetic expression of optimism about the road ahead.
We’re paying homage to that early embrace of modernity, as well as to that spirit of optimism, with this exquisite gold vermeil and citrine collection. Sunny yellow citrine and luscious madeira citrine combine with sparkling white topaz in sumptuous 18k gold vermeil settings. The clean lines, curved geometric forms and luxurious materials make this ring, bracelet and earring set an eye-catching contemporary take on art deco.
Named after the citron fruit, citrine is a form of colored quartz possessing excellent transparency, hardness and luster and beloved for its range of warm hues. Most gem-quality citrine comes from Brazil, where these stones were sourced and fashioned into the bracelet you see here.
