By the late 1920s, early 1930s they were well into the Art Deco period. Art Deco in Continental Europe started ca 1910. It wasn&#039;t a clean break from Art Nouveau/Jugendstil, there were still Art Nouveau items being made.</p><p>If this is a French piece, it is more likely to be Art Deco.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jugendstil itself has two &#039;branches&#039;, one is French inspired, with elegant floral and feminine shapes, the other has that bold, more linear look which you have seen.</p><p>No doubt the linear branch of Jugendstil contributed to the development of Art Deco.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
