When you mix copper as an alloy with gold, you get the
famous pink or rose color. The Art Deco era is known for its use of geometric
style elements as decorative designs. Although the metal of choice during the
two decades that mark this era was platinum, some artisans combined the warmth
of pink gold with the shapes of the time. The resulting pieces deepen the
beauty of the designs by creating some shade displays that you simply do not
get with platinum. Look closely, and you see exactly what we mean.
1940s Late Retro Art Deco Accordion Necklace
Designers started with 18k medium pink gold for this accordion necklace. It expands from 17 inches to 18 inches. The
three-dimensional design adds depth to the look that easily turns this piece
into a statement necklace. At a width of 5.7mm to 11.1mm, it hugs the curves of
your neck. When you are in the market for a piece that advertises your flair
for yesteryear’s artistry, this is an excellent pick.

The setting material for these pieces is 14k pink gold.
Eight bright red rubies weigh a combined .80cts and bring the Art Deco design style to life. Four single-cut white diamonds weigh a total of .12cts and
highlight the flair of another set of Art Deco elements. The dark pink of the
settings brings out the color combination of the red and white gems. Consider
these earrings to accessorize red, white, blue or green wardrobe selections.
They pair well with sweaters, low-cut blouses or strapless dresses.
