Appearing in France just prior to the First World War, the art deco movement quickly became popular all over the World. Its name is a shortened form of Arts Décoratifs, introduced at the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, held in Paris in 1925. The Art Deco style represented luxury, wealth and glamour, with silver examples being most highly sought after.
