There were some other official names, all similar, but with different political connotations.</p><p>They continued to make jewellery through all those political and name changes. Their heyday was the 1920s-30s, when different Art Deco designs were added to existing styles.</p><p>The general term is Bohemian for pre-WWI jewellery, Czech for later jewellery. Bohemian can also be used if you&#039;re not sure, because it is the name of the region throughout history and still is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
