Art Deco is said to have begun in the 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes. This new style moved away from the floral and organic forms of the old Art Nouveau and embraced influences from many different styles and movements of the early 20th century, including Neoclassical, Constructivism, Cubism, Modernism and Futurism. Here are some art deco emerald rings:

The influence of Cubism is evident in the strong symmetry, geometry and streamlined shapes of Art Deco jewelry. You can see unusual square and rectangular shapes of the stones and how they are in these art deco emerald rings. This was very appealing to a new era that was in a more streamlined approach to most things.
Art deco emerald rings are not diamond solitaires that we are used to seeing. Rather, a larger central stone is often surrounded by smaller stones contrasting set of geometric angles. On average, the Art Deco emerald rings larger than today’s engagement rings and more comparable to modern bridal sets.
During the Great Depression, however, was the emphasis on the ring’s overall design rather than a large center stone, then design an elaborate ring with many smaller and less expensive beads was more practical than the larger, less affordable stones.
Platinum band was especially popular in Art Deco emerald rings. The bright white luster of platinum band beautifully compliments brightly colored gemstones. White gold or silver could also be used for this purpose, but Art Deco jewelry was considered ultra-modern and platinum was a modern metal that is used in lots of jewelry at that time. It was stronger than silver and lighter than steel, making it a very popular choice for art deco emerald rings.
Art Deco-style changed from the extravagant jewels of outrageous cocktail rings in the 1920s to a more conservative, but no less stunning art deco emerald rings style in the 1930s. But even if the size of the jewels changed, the basic style remained the same – a larger pearl in the center that was surrounded by small beads in a contrasting color and often in difficult geometric and platinum settings.
