Perhaps no period has left as lasting impression on jewelry as the age of Art Deco. Harry Winston’s collection, released earlier this fall and titled “Art Deco by Harry Winston,” recalls some of this era’s gentler motifs. The small six-piece collection consists of a diamond sautoir, two diamond bracelets, single motif diamond earrings, a diamond pendant, and a lady’s timepiece. Each item comes designed in combinations of geometric and angular shapes using round brilliant and baguette cut white diamonds and platinum. Each of the pieces is representative of a singular sculptural theme, either as the focal point of the piece or as a repetitive design. The collection is available at Harry Winston salons worldwide.
