    What is Filigree?

    Filigree refers to a specific style of embellishing jewelry by layering thin threads of metal onto the piece. These fine threads of metal are typically twisted or curled to create a delicate design. Filigree can be found in jewelry throughout history, used to create designs of beautiful scrollwork or lacy flourishes. During the Art Deco period, filigree was often used to create symmetrical Art Deco style designs.
