Art Deco was arguably the most innovative, opulent and stylistically advanced period of the last two hundred years. The look was elaborate; geometric designs overflowing with diamonds accented with tiny pops of color. It was architectural and elegant, capturing hearts for generations. Art Deco began to emerge in 1915 and continued into the mid-late 1930’s.

The Art Deco style has influenced every period since. In fact, it is the most copied design aesthetic of the modern era. Entire companies have been founded exclusively on Art Deco-inspired jewelry and countless others offer individual lines infused with 1930’s panache. Perhaps the most successful modern maker of Art Deco-inspired jewelry is Beverley K.

Founded in 1999, Beverley K creates graceful and feminine jewelry that captures a perfect harmonious balance gems and precious metals. At Joden, we often have a piece or two of Beverley K pizzazz sprinkled throughout the store.

Today we are featuring one of our favorites. This 18-karat white gold beauty is striking from every angle. Flattering the finger, the overall shape is elongated and narrow – it’s a miniature sculpture. The ends are capped with a pair of bullet-cut vivid blue sapphires. Eight additional French-cut sapphires span the center of the ring, in total, the sapphires have a combined weight of 1.92 carats.

Twenty-six diamonds accent the ornate geometric design. These diamonds offer .42 carat of sparkle. Overall, the design is sleek, sophisticated and totally Art Deco. This ring is still active in the Beverley K line, it has been featured on our website for $4,700.00. It’s a classic example of everything being right about the piece… which makes me wonder why we still have it.

It must be the price. Let’s fix that! Now a Pick of the Week – this Beverley K stunner is available for just $3,750.00. If you’ve had your eye on it – now is the time to make it yours.

Baubles, Bling and the Latest Things

The chief complaint about reproduction jewelry is always the quality. Often made from inferior metals with poor manufacturing – replica pieces can be low grade and substandard. Additional criticisms include mediocre style and design.

To be honest, when I hear the words “Art Deco Inspired,” I cringe a little inside… primarily for the reasons mentioned above. In a business like ours, who would choose a reproduction when there are authentic originals available? Today, the answer to that question is me. I would choose a reproduction – but only if it’s this one.

To the average person, this ring appears to be an authentic original. However, under the careful trained eye of a seasoned expert (Jay, of course), a discovery was made… this ring is cast. This process involves making a wax model from which a mold is made. Molten hot gold is then poured into the mold, cooled and finally broken open. The ring revealed inside is then final finished with sanding and polishing. Authentic Art Deco jewelry is handmade, not cast.

Although this little gem is not handmade, it’s also not low rent. Made from 18-karat white gold (definitely NOT an inferior metal), this Art Deco-inspired beauty has great detail. There are four tiny flowers woven into the fine filigree wire work. Additional charm accents each shoulder in the form of sculpted pieces and engraved patterns.

Sitting center stage is one Old European Cut diamond. This beauty weighs approximately .65 carat – it shimmers from every angle.

This dainty darling sits perfectly on the hand. And although it’s not an antique original, it is a fine quality modern diamond engagement ring. Priced at $2,000.00, it’s available on our site now. Hop on over and check it out!
