1930's

Jewelry of the 1930s reflects a captivating blend of glamour, innovation, and resilience. Influenced by the sleek geometry of Art Deco, the curves of Streamline Moderne, and the sparkle of Hollywood, pieces from this era exude both elegance and bold style. Platinum remained a favorite early in the decade, but white gold, silver, and affordable alternatives became increasingly popular, often set with brilliant rhinestones, glass, or colorful synthetic gems. Stylized motifs—bows, sunbursts, flowers, and fans—appeared alongside statement-making dress clips, wide bracelets, and dramatic cocktail rings. Even during the Great Depression, advances in mass production and design brought high style within reach, making 1930s jewelry a timeless testament to creativity and optimism. At Krombholz Vintage, we curate exceptional examples from this vibrant decade, offering one-of-a-kind pieces that bring the glamour of the past into the present.
