Art Deco Paste Set Necklace c.1930

Art Deco jewellery of the 1920s and 1930s favoured strong geometry and bold colour, often using paste stones to achieve striking visual effects without the cost of natural gemstones. This necklace dates to around 1930 and is 45cm long, weighing 10.60g, set with claw-set emerald-coloured paste squares graduating from 8.25mm to 4.25mm. The mid-green tone is reminiscent of Colombian emeralds, giving the piece a rich and confident presence, while the graduated layout allows it to sit smoothly around the neck. The metal appears to be gold plate, consistent with the period, providing a warm contrast to the stones. A well-balanced and eye-catching example that wears comfortably and reflects the clean, structured style of the Art Deco era.
