[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4527377, member: 2844"]It is gorgeous, Peggy, and your friend did a great job.:woot::woot::happy: I know it often takes years before you have found all the right replacement bits and bobs. The Art Nouveau period ended at different dates in different parts of the world. The generally accepted end date is the start of WWI, 1914. In Western Europe it had ended years before then. France had already started preparations for the 'Exposition de arts décoratifs etc', which had to be postponed because of WWI. Art Deco is named after the 'Exposition'. But in Bohemia and other parts of Central and Eastern Europe it lasted much longer, even into the early 20s. Some people call the Bohemian Art Nouveau/Secession style after 1914 'Bohemian Transitional'.[/QUOTE]
