A SPECIAL ART DECO DIAMOND ANTIQUE ENGAGEMENT RING
The Art Deco time period, 1920-1935, is well known for specific styling of architecture, fashion and, in fact, everything material. In the early 1920's, jewelry was created in platinum, the king of metals. Master jewelers took pride and valuable time, painstakingly, creating jewelry with the most detailed and intricate designs. Platinum was used because it was malleable which allowed the jeweler to create jewelry with meticulous piercings and filigree. Usually, these precious pieces of jewelry, which can only be described as artwork, contained diamonds and frequently accented with sapphires (often synthetic) and rubies or emeralds.
