Damage:
Age-appropriate wear. Tarnish on the sterling silver gives this piece an antique quality which we believe is quite lovely. The tarnish can be removed with the use of a polishing cloth if desired. There is some red spotting, which occurs over time when silver reacts with the sulfur in the atmosphere. This can be removed with a gentle soap.

The History
The Art Deco era is famous for being the "Gatsby" or "Roaring Twenties" era. A lot of gorgeous and timeless designs in jewelry came out of this period. Jewelry from this period was most often crafted between 1920 and 1940. Art Deco jewelry sometimes featured white gold or platinum, geometric designs, European cut diamonds, filigree, and calibre cut stones that are specially cut to fit the design of the piece. During the Art Deco period jewelers often made jewelry upon custom order, this would usually take weeks to months to completely craft by hand.
