This is a Birks sterling and rhinestone bracelet from the 20s; they had them made for Birks in Germany.

Some of the most beautiful pieces from that era came out of France and Germany, as well as the UK, to a lesser extent.

The large clip to the left is also Birks from the 20s. (Birks is pretty much the Canadian equivalent of Tiffany.) The red ones on the bottom are French; the three to the left are German.

Thank you! I really feel that most jewellery is like small pieces of art. Especially with the vintage ones, I want to know more about how and when they were made and if possible, by whom.
 
The Art Deco era is one of the most significant for the jewelry industry, many call this the golden age of jewels.

The jewelers that really influenced this era include Cartier, VC&A, Boucheron, Tiffany, Oscar Heyman. If you happen to own a major signed piece from early Art Deco, this can go for huge $$$$$$ these days. These are very sought after by major jewelry collectors - for example, early art deco pieces by less well-known but SUPER exclusive jewelers like Suzanne Belperron.

One of my Art Deco collections ever is Cartier's Tutti Frutti - outrageously and over the top opulent :smile1:
