Art Deco engagement rings represent both timeless beauty and sophistication for the future bride. Despite the fact that the designs are often symmetrical and even industrial in nature, they are also very feminine and striking and are sure to turn heads that are more used to the unoriginal ‘big rock’ style of engagement ring. Art Deco engagement rings have an emphasis on clarity rather than sparkle.
The design of art deco rings harks back to the era that they were created in. The Art Deco style embodies the linking of the old and new worlds. Art Deco design parallels the birth of the new industrial age, and the materials used in the designs are a byproduct of this influence. The promise of the 20’s and 30’s, brimming with a want for a classical sophistication, spawned jewelry designs that are timeless in nature and will never go out of fashion. Uniquely, Art Deco ring designs draw inspiration from many cultures - from Persian to Egyptian, Native American, Oriental and Aztec Indian.
Art Deco engagement rings offer a beautiful balance and work as a unique piece, rather than a sum of parts. Platinum is one metal that is frequently incorporated into Art Deco style engagement rings. A combination of diamonds and sapphires in a platinum setting is one of todays hottest trends in antique jewelry. No matter which stone is used the final result is always unique, classy and full of charm.
Art Deco engagement rings in silver are proving to be increasingly popular, not least because of their classic, elegant and timeless styling.
Such is the desire for antique Art Deco engagement rings, demand is outstripping supply. In the wake of this shortfall reproductions have emerged to fill the gap. These pieces, exquisite in their own right, are often less costly than their antique counterparts but equally beautiful.
