1930s Jewelry Trends

While the Great Depression often overshadows the 1930s, it was also an era enamored with silver screen stars and late Art Deco style. Fashion turned economical without sacrificing its grandeur, as designers and consumers tried to make a little go a long way. While cheaper alternatives such as rhinestones and gold plating rose to popularity, many still sought out high quality craftsmanship for the pieces that mattered most, as we can see with this certified solitaire engagement ring!

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of 1930s fashion is that it returned to Victorian Era trends. This is around the time gold came back in style—perhaps because it represented a safe investment during the difficult years of the Depression, or because it offered a classic hope that the economy could prosper once again.

The classic solitaire design offered the ideal style for the 1930s: glamorous and dependable, a household opulence. Today, a vintage solitaire from this era is an incredible find, valued for its high-quality craftsmanship and uniquely nostalgic beauty.
