Sharp lines, bold glamour: Art Deco-inspired jewellery you’ll want now

Born in the chaos and thrill of the 1920s, Deco was the jewellery equivalent of a jazz solo: Graphic, rule-breaking, a little hedonistic. Today, its legacy is everywhere—from vintage Cartier on auction blocks to fresh reinterpretations by indie designers who’ve traded frills for clean edges and bold symmetry. It continues to shape the design language of contemporary collections with its timeless elegance and architectural clarity.
