Art Deco Diamond & Platinum Lapel Watch with Glycine Movement

About the Item

Elegant Art Deco Lapel watch created in France in the 1920's. Beautiful shape, tasteful combination of Marquise cut and Old European cut finest quality diamonds with meticulous engraving and Glycine movement are the highlights of this unique piece. The movement is Swiss made and has 17 jewels. The watch is in working condition. About Art Deco Jewelry: 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 with several Art Deco Revival waves throughout the century. What’s the secret of 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. 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.
