The 1930s:
1930s jewellery reflects a fascinating blend of glamour and innovation, capturing the spirit of an era marked by both economic challenges and artistic experimentation. As the world grappled with the Great Depression, designers turned to imaginative techniques and materials to create pieces that were both stylish and accessible. The 1930s were the heyday of the Art Deco movement, which dramatically influenced jewellery design. This era saw the rise of geometric patterns, clean lines, and bold colours. The 1930s also embraced nature-inspired and exotic themes. Jewellery often featured motifs such as birds, flowers, and animals, rendered in intricate detail. There was also an interest in designs inspired by ancient cultures, including Egyptian and Mayan influences, reflecting a fascination with archaeology and the exotic. Hollywood had a significant impact on jewellery trends. Movie stars and starlets popularised glamorous, statement pieces, and their influence was evident in the rise of lavish, eye-catching designs. High-profile actresses like Joan Crawford and Greta Garbo became fashion icons, their personal styles setting trends in both fashion and jewellery.
