Ye gods! The Art Deco movement incorporated elements of Greek mythology, creating stylized interpretations of classical gods. Our favorite is Athena, the goddess of wisdom and the arts. So when we developed the Vanguard “Athena” capsule collection, we focused on styles that would convey the elegance of strength and wisdom, with beautiful artistic details. We use the same beloved diamond setting styles as in our chic solitaire rings and offer the option of two-tone for a classic Verragio look.

Styling tips: stack the Athena bangles in multiple colors or wear them with a watch or tennis bracelet. Large circle earrings face sideways and wrap around from front to back—perfect for an elegant updo hairstyle. And the Athena Toi et Moi ring carries the grace of Verragio’s bridal designs to your right hand for double glamour.

For another contemporary interpretation of the Greek gods, Netflix’s KAOS, starring Jeff Goldblum is a hilarious crash course in mythology. Its modern-day characters would go gaga for these diamonds.
