Czech glass jewellery gained worldwide acclaim in the early 20th century for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship. In the 1920s and 1930s, Bohemian glassmakers perfected the art of cutting and faceting colored glass to mimic precious gemstones. Bold and beautiful, these pieces became highly sought after during the Art Deco movement, known for its geometric designs and rich, vibrant colors.
This necklace is a stunning example of that tradition, likely handcrafted in the Gablonz region (now Jablonec nad Nisou), a hub of glassmaking excellence. Its design reflects the luxurious yet modern aesthetic that defined the 1930s.
