What fan of vintage jewelry doesn’t have at least a glancing acquaintance with the Art Nouveau Era (roughly 1890-1910), an era of particular grace and elegance in the decorative arts?
This beloved art style encompassed all of the decorative arts: painting, graphic print, architecture, stained glass windows, statuary, lamps, furniture, jewelry, even wrought iron gates! Both opulent and intricate, Art Nouveau speaks of a more elegant, civilized era–where gentlemen still wore top hats and ladies, bustles.
Some of the most captivating images of the era appear on famous posters by names you’ll recognize: Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt, Rudolphe Salis . . .
One could spend a lifetime studying and reveling in the romance and sauce of this era . . . more to come . . .
