Design Era	Art Nouveau
Design & Historical Context	Art Nouveau, also known as the Modern Style or or Jugendstil, is a decorative art movement that emerged in the late 19th century and was popular until World War I. It is characterized by its use of flowing, organic lines and naturalistic motifs, such as flowers, plants, and animals, as well as its emphasis on craftsmanship and the use of unconventional materials, such as glass, ceramic, and metal. Art Nouveau jewelry often features intricate and detailed designs, with a focus on curved lines and natural forms. The jewelry is often made of precious metals, such as gold and silver, and may be adorned with gemstones, enamels, and other decorative elements. One of the most distinctive features of Art Nouveau jewelry is its use of elongated, sinuous lines and flowing, organic shapes, which were meant to evoke a sense of movement and fluidity. The jewelry often depicts nature themes, such as flowers, vines, and leaves, as well as abstract and symbolic motifs, such as the female form, which was often depicted in a sensual or romanticized way. Art Nouveau jewelry was popular in many countries, including France, Belgium, Austria, and the United States, and was produced by a wide range of designers and artists, including Louis Comfort Tiffany, René Lalique, and Gustav Klimt. Despite the popularity of Art Nouveau, the movement eventually fell out of favor after World War I, and was replaced by more geometric and industrial styles. However, it has often been revived and continues to influence contemporary jewelry design.
Materials & Craftsmanship	Silver Silver is a white metallic element that is known for its excellent conductivity of heat and electricity. It is represented on the periodic table of elements by the symbol Ag, and it is a member of the noble metals, which are known for their excellent resistance to oxidation. Silver is a relatively soft metal, with a hardness that is intermediate between gold and copper. It is more malleable and ductile than gold, which means that it can be easily shaped and molded into various forms. However, it is not as hard as copper, which means that it is more prone to scratches and other types of damage. Because of its softness, silver is usually alloyed with another metal to harden it enough to maintain the desired shape and details when it is used in jewelry and other decorative objects. This helps to give it the necessary strength and durability for use in these types of applications. Throughout history, silver has played a prominent role in the production of jewelry and objets d'art. It is prized for its beauty and versatility, and it is often used in a wide variety of different types of jewelry, including rings, earrings, pendants, and bracelets. It is also used in decorative objects, such as candlesticks, vases, and other decorative items.

Wearing your jewelry is a special way to express yourself and add a touch of personal style to any look. However, to ensure your jewelry remains in pristine condition, there are a few simple steps you need to take to keep it looking its best.

General Care Instructions:

Remove jewelry when showering or bathing, especially when at the beach, in the sea or in chlorinated water.
Avoid wearing jewelry while doing physical work such as housekeeping, gardening or exercise.
Storing your jewelry in a dry and cool place will help protect it from moisture, dirt and dust.
Keeping it away from harsh chemicals such as bleach, ammonia and chlorine will help to avoid discoloration and damage.
Cleaning your jewelry regularly with a soft cloth will help to keep it looking shiny and new.
Avoid exposing your jewelry to extreme temperatures, such as leaving it in direct sunlight or near a heater, as this can cause damage.
Handle your jewelry carefully and avoid dropping it, as this can cause the stones to loosen or the metals to scratch.
Finally, if possible, have your jewelry professionally checked and serviced. This will ensure that any potential problems are spotted and fixed before they become worse.
