History:
Parallel to Art Nouveau, the Belle Epoque style developed. It then represented the dominant trend.
This trend was largely inspired by the French decorative arts of the 18th century and was characterized by the use of platinum and the finesse of the jewelry. Louis Cartier would profoundly mark this period.
The First World War put an end to this style but would significantly influence Art Deco.
