Wow Jill, this video discussed not only one of my favorite jewelry periods but I also collect old photos so it was double the pleasure.

[@JillMaurer]

So happy you enjoyed it.

[@love_for_travel]

[@mariaportillo5276]

You explain those details very well, I like your videos very much, Art Deco for sure one of the most iconic ones and yes polish and beautiful, thank you.

[@JillMaurer]

Thank you Maria! It makes me so happy that you enjoyed it! xoxo

[@angelaferrario6031]

My favorite: geometry and colors at their best! Angular shapes, cubism, modern Art to wear. Bold, strong and sleek at the same time...

[@JillMaurer]

It was such a great time period for design! xoxo

[@planalive9664]

Wow! I've been making some digital artworks I call Artillions or LJA (Luxury Jewelry Art) for a few years now. I consider them art deco for the homes and offices without knowing there's actually an jewelry art style called Art Deco and I see some similarities. Though I've sold none yet because I don't have the resources or connection to produce them I'm still creating more nonetheless. LoL. Thanks for sharing this wonderful realization. Keep it up.

[@elisabethst.claire5088]

Art Deco is simply THE best design period ever, in my opinion. Very classic and tailored which is what I love the most. Thank you so much for these educational videos. I enjoy them tremendously!

[@JillMaurer]

You are so welcome! I'm glad you are enjoying them!! xoxo

[@AutumnBeckman]

Oh, I love art deco! It's one of my favorite styles for jewelry, art, and architecture. It was fun being able to see all the art deco architecture when I lived in NYC. Thanks for this video!

[@JillMaurer]

NYC is a wonderful place for art deco. The last time I was there I spent some time in the Chrysler Building. It is such a masterpiece! xoxo

[@michellepereira2328]

I don’t know if it is possible to love all forms of jewelry but thats how I honestly feel. Sometimes I prefer a piece of jewelry with a lot of colorful stones and other times I like something more simple and sculptural. Your presentation of jewelry in the time of history is very interesting and something I am interested in learning about.

[@JillMaurer]

We are in the same boat Michelle! There is so much jewelry I love! Thank you for watching!! xoxo

[@leeleelv]

I absolutely love Art Deco jewelry ,I had originally wanted to go with an Art Deco style wedding band when we were looking at wedding bands ,however once I tried on eternity bands, it was a wrap lol . I fell in love with the eternity band , never thought in a million years I would have 1 to be honest but my hubby was good at surprising me with one for sure ,I literally had no clue ,I have to say though Art Deco jewelry is probably 1 of my favorite styles ,maybe down the road I will add a piece of Art Deco style jewelry ,thanks for sharing Jill ,always a pleasure

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks for watching and for your continued support and encouragement Lisa. Yes Art Deco is beautiful. And your eternity band is amazing! xoxo

[@harveyspecter1855]

Cartier Art deco x Indian jewels are my absolute favourite. Unparalleled and a game changer in the way jewels were worn.

[@emilypound]

Love the art deco style, it is just stunning. Every time I see it, I think of Gatsby :) Art Nouveau as well ... incredible designs. Fantastic video as usual. xo

[@JillMaurer]

I completely agree Emily!! xoxo

[@smscrapper]

I love that as you speak we get to see different examples of the pieces you are talking about. Another great video!

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks Sharon! I'm glad you like the photos! xoxo

[@ladyluck5248]

I love Art Deco !

[@JillMaurer]

Art Deco is gorgeous and so wearable. It is especially wonderful if you love platinum! xoxo

[@michelesalter9564]

Love all the examples that you incorporated. Love that style of jewelry and these videos are a wonderful series.

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks Michele! It's been such a fun series to work on. xoxo

[@benjalucian1515]

I love art deco style in jewelry, but all I see are gem encrusted earrings, bracelets and necklaces that would be lovely at high class balls or nights on the town. But what were the everyday art deco style jewelry worn by women during the Art Deco age?

[@yolandaponkers1581]

Art Deco jewelry is my favorite! I collect Coro duettes from that era. I'd love to add some "real" pieces to my Deco jewelry collection, once I have the money to do so, lol. Great video, as always!

[@JillMaurer]

Those Coro brooches are amazing! xoxo

[@anitahickey5561]

Hi, I just found you today by accident on the computer. I'm so glad that I did. I love your presentations. From N Y. State

[@JillMaurer]

Thank you so much for your kind words! Welcome! I'm delighted you are here!! xoxo

[@fabulousirene]

So interesting and informative video. I always see those type of jewelry but never know what they call. So good to know from you . Awesome video ❤️

[@JillMaurer]

I'm so happy you enjoyed it Irene! xoxo

[@edienahawkes3165]

Those are some amazing Art Deco pieces that you showed. Now I have to find out what on earth did hold the stones in place on the Mystery Setting Pieces.

[@JillMaurer]

I've seen the settings and they still puzzle me! xoxo

[@edienahawkes3165]

I looked it up on the net and discovered that the gems had a channel created on the sides of them then they were slid between two metal prongs so that they were held in place right beside each other, hiding the metalwork. I believe that Van Cleef and Arpels were the first to do this. www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&tbm=isch&q=who+first+created+invisible+settings+art+deco&chips=q:who+first+created+invisible+settings+art+deco,online_chips:mystery+setting&usg=AI4_-kQa0oImRfo4FKvypcDgZ3NXb4rjfg&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjo-siOiNPgAhUqiFQKHR4yAZEQ4lYILSgE&biw=1366&bih=654&dpr=1

[@edienahawkes3165]

The following is a better explanation of what I was trying to say :) Patented by Van Cleef & Arpels in 1933, the Mystery Set technique remains an emblematic example of the Maison's savoir-faire, allowing gems to be displayed with no visible mounting. Its secret lies in gold rails, onto which specially-cut precious stones - generally rubies, but also emeralds and sapphires - are positioned one by one. After many hours of recutting, they perfectly cover the jeweled surface, endowing it with a sumptuous velvety luster. Because of the level of expertise required, the Maison only produces a few pieces each year. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the Maison has introduced innovations that include the Navette Mystery Set - in which marquise-cut stones create a three-dimensional effect - and the Vitrail Mystery Set, which plays on the stones' transparency. With gems slotting perfectly into a golden setting that remains invisible on either side, jewelry-making expertise takes on a subtle air of mystery

[@christinascherer2645]

I have come across costume jewelry from the 1930's, many with nice rhinestones. Some of the earrings have a screw-in back. I actually like wearing them, they are quite beautiful! Is there any value to them, despite the fact that they aren't "real" jewelry?

[@YotaStyle]

I really think I was meant to be born during this time! ha Love this style jewelry! This is your best video yet, so interesting and informative! XO YotaStyle

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks Yota! I can definitely see you in a flapper dress, decked out in jewelry, and a feather on your head!! xoxo

[@SewardWriter]

Where did you get your example photos? I'd like to replicate some in seed beads. Thanks so much!

[@dorthyohaka6474]

Jill I just recently watched you on KZbin, And I know you might have insight on what website to Italian dress shoes for women, but affordable. Do you have any suggestions?

[@socalrockergal3727]

Love Art Deco ♥️

[@JillMaurer]

Me too! But in fairness, I love them all!! xoxo

[@boopyboop0]

So beautiful!

[@JillMaurer]

Thank you Nana! xoxo

[@maryharper9321]

I love Art Deco

[@JillMaurer]

Me too Mary! xoxo

[@lesliecraven3087]

So interesting. And of course I love the Art Deco period Do you have any book recommendations or website recommendations so I can look at the beautiful pictures of jewelry you use as examples

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks Leslie! Christie's is one good source for learning about Art Deco jewelry www.christies.com/features/Art-Deco-Jewellery-Collecting-Guide-8611-1.aspx

[@fashionandluxury101]

Very informative. I think the art deco period is too flashy.or gaudy for my taste. However, it's simply stunning..

[@JillMaurer]

Thanks Andrea! Hmmm we are not on the same page. It's pretty hard to be too gaudy for me. When I was younger my mother and I used to exclaim (while exaggerating our southern drawls) "Gaudy that's beautiful!" whenever we loved something that we knew was really over the top! xoxo

[@fashionandluxury101]

@@JillMaurer My darling, you have impeccable taste. 😊

[@kayyin]

How do I judge whether the price an art deco bracelet is reasonable or not? I have come across something but cannot be sure it has the price it deserves...

[@JillMaurer]

It's always difficult to judge. One of the best ways to judge is to compare it with other things you can get at the same price or with other similar bracelets to see what price they are. It isn't an exact science because the pricing depends largely on how well the piece is made and how desirable the style is, in addition to the materials used of course. xoxo

[@prncfrk]

After watching your videos I feel my IQ went up a point🤣 thanks for the lesson 💜❌⭕️💜❌⭕️💜❌⭕️

[@JillMaurer]

Aww thank you! xoxo

[@djilaliramdane9488]

Cheers for this, I have been researching "white flapper dress costume" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Panadarson Flapper Falbala - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my neighbour got cool success with it.

[@JillMaurer]

Thank you! I have never heard of it and will check it out. xoxo
