Match Your Mood: Art Deco to Modern— Which Jewellery Style Suits You?

Jewellery has always been more than an accessory – it’s a reflection of personality, mood and style. The right ring, bracelet or pendant doesn’t just complement an outfit; it also tells a story.  At McGowans Jewellers, we’ve been helping Glaswegians find their perfect piece for over a century, and with styles ranging from striking Art Deco to timeless antiques, there’s something to suit every mood.

So, which style speaks to you today? Let’s explore four distinct jewellery personalities, and you might discover your perfect match!

The Dreamer – Art Deco Elegance

Are you drawn to geometric patterns, bold lines, and a touch of glamour? Then you’re living the Art Deco dream. Jewellery pieces from this era are unforgivingly bold, designed for those who want their jewellery to stand out.

Take our Art Deco sapphire and diamond ring, a true statement to confidence and sophistication. Whether you’re heading to a glamorous night out in Glasgow’s West End or dressing up your everyday style, this era of jewels is perfect for the dreamer who loves a bit of sparkle with structure.

The Old Soul – Antique Charm

Do you treasure history, romance and the idea of owning something truly original?

Antique jewellery holds stories from generations past, making each one as unique as the person wearing it. Our Victorian diamond bangle is a shining example of classic, elegant and timeless. It’s for those who prefer tradition over trends and love the idea of carrying a piece of history on their wrist.

The Minimalist – Modern Simplicity

Sometimes less really is more. If you find yourself reaching for clean lines and understated pieces, you’re a minimalist at heart. A sleek diamond tennis bracelet in a simple yellow gold or platinum is versatile enough for everyday wear but still radiates elegance. It’s jewellery that elevates rather than competes.

If you believe in subtle sophistication, then this is perfect for you.

The Trendsetter – Statement Styler

If your jewellery is the first thing people notice when you walk into a room, you’re the trendsetter!

From bold gemstone rings to intricate brooches, your pieces are the topic of conversation. Why follow trends when you can set them? Whether it’s a vibrant blue topaz ring or a showstopping detachable Victorian emerald and diamond cluster, this style is for those who see jewellery as an extension of their creative personality.
