Today we’re going to spend some time with some of our favorites pieces of Art Deco pearl jewelry. Why? Why not! Also, though, because it is both a classic vintage gem ideal for brides, as well as the third June birthstone we’ll be featuring on the site (after previously discussing art deco moonstone jewelry as well as art deco alexandrite jewelry.)

WANT NOW PLEASE. GIVE. MINE. That’s a 25 carat emerald cut aquamarine (March’s birthstone!) in a dazzling platinum and diamond …
Here we are in the dog days of summer once again, and today we’re going to celebrate all those lucky August-borns, who have not one, not two, but THREE official birthstones. Last year we covered the primary, most popular and well-known August birthstone with a variety of Art Deco peridot pieces, but this year we’re …
