It is known for its bold geometric shapes, rich colors, and lavish ornamentation. Combining modernist styles with fine craftsmanship and rich materials, Art Deco represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. It was influenced by a variety of sources, including the bold geometric forms of Cubism, the bright colors of Fauvism, and the exotic styles of China, Japan, India, Persia, ancient Egypt, and Maya art.
