1950 to 1960
Jewelry from the 1950s, a link between the aftermath of the Second World War and the economic boom of the 1960s, was marked by several trends.
While the production of the previous decade was marked by the reign of yellow or pink gold, the 1950s saw the return of platinum and white gold.
If the themes seem directly inherited from the 1940s, gold is worked in a more complex way.
This type of ancient jewelry is experiencing growing interest in the market.
