About the Item

An exquisite wide vintage diamond platinum bracelet in Art Deco revival style. The workmanship of this vintage bracelet is outstanding. There are multiple skillfully crafted moving parts. Each part carries a different pattern, and all together they create a stunning geometrical ornament. The style of this vintage diamond bracelet is echoing Art Deco era with its angular shapes and daring, futuristic look. The design is really manifesting in the geometry of the diamond cuts which vary from an Old European, asscher, emerald, baguette to more exotic triangle, trapezoid, and whistle. Using platinum as a metal completes the Art Deco appearance of this wide diamond bracelet. This gorgeous Art Deco Revival bracelet was created in the 1960's. It is made of platinum and encrusted with approximately 53 carats of diamonds. This fabulous wide bracelet measures 6 ¾” x 1 1/8” and it fits up to 6 ½”-wrist. It weighs 82.6 grams. The bracelet has a safety chain. Art Deco jewelry has remained highly appreciated since its appearance in 1920s — the time also knows as Jazz Age. The style continuously remains popular until today. What’s the secret of the Art Deco success? First comes the design itself. Neat geometrical shapes embodied in platinum makes a refined jewelry piece look very appealing. Simple yet powerful, straight lines along with precise workmanship create a striking impression. Add to that a pear or marquise cut gemstone and you won’t be able to forget that perfect Art Deco piece. Black and white combos, such as diamond and black onyx or black enamel create a dramatic effect. Platinum, being the most popular material during Art Deco era, also contributed to the period jewelry popularity. At that time the Merensky-Riff, the world’s largest platinum deposit, was discovered in South Africa. And platinum’s title as the main Art Deco metal was fully established. Vintage jewelry is something we can talk about for days. Since the subject is that big and has multiple aspects to discuss, we’d like to focus on the most important parts of it. Let’s define what the vintage jewelry is, why it’s so appealing and how to buy your vintage jewelry online. In the industry, different sellers and makers have different opinions on the time period when vintage jewels were made. Here at Nadine Krakov, we consider vintage as anything being made between 50 and 100 years ago. Therefore, all jewelry produced from 1930 to 1980 called vintage. This time frame is comprised of Art Deco, Retro and Mid-Century styles. Why do we love vintage jewelry so much? It’s all about the quality of making and - of course - the look. Vintage pieces were mostly made by hand or at least hand-finished while modern jewels are mainly cast. As the lifestyle back in the days was much slower, jewelry makers literally had more time in their hands. Skilled craftsmen honed their craft and reputation. They couldn’t allow a flimsy, poorly done piece to ruin that. Mass market jewelry didn’t exist at that time. Each little detail of a piece was executed thoughtfully and with the high quality in mind.
