The art deco movement of the early 20th century did more than streamline our buildings, cars and radio cabinets; it also led to a total reimagining of what jewelry could be. As tastes diverged from the flowing ornamentation of the Victorian era and art nouveau, major designers made bold decisions when it came to sourcing and styling their stones and metals. They shifted their emphasis away from gold and diamonds, embracing alternative gems and settings in a range of colors, materials and price points. They ushered in geometric shapes inspired by Cubism. And when they did use diamonds and other clear stones, they amped up the contrast by employing onyx or black enamel for a striking effect.
At Stauer, we believe in bold — bold choices, bold action and bold design. That’s why we’re pleased to present the Go Boldly Art Deco Necklace and Earrings, jewelry that encapsulates the aesthetic achievements of the art deco movement. Featuring our Ultimate Diamond Alternative®, DiamondAura®, in rhodium-finished .925 sterling silver, these pieces boast a classic deco octagonal profile.
But most eye-catching is the black enamel finish that frames the central stones. The unmistakably art deco look means these pieces are as suited to the workplace as they are to the cocktail bar afterwards, and the use of our affordable diamond alternative means you can go big on sparkle and bold on impact — without having to go home early.
