Art Nouveau Jewelry, French for “New Art”, originated in France around 1890. Overlapping with the Victorian and Edwardian Eras, Art Nouveau was in part a reaction to the mass-manufactured jewelry of the day. With its sinuous curves and flowing lines inspired by the natural world, jewelry from this period featured a variety of flora and fauna, dragonflies, butterflies, and nymph-like maidens soft and romantic in style.
