Art Deco earrings of the early 1920s retained the delicacy of the earlier Edwardian models, with their chandelier forms and cascades of flexibly-set diamonds. Calibré-cut colored stones employed as graphic accents to emphasize strong lines became popular throughout the 1920s, when bold color and pure geometry became the reigning style.
