Released in 1981, the Avon Gilded Trellis is a wide openwork band built entirely from interlocking diamond forms — negative space and gold in equal measure, the whole structure open to light from every angle. It sits closer to architectural jewelry than costume, the kind of piece that reads differently depending on how the light falls. Named Avon releases from this era are actively sought by collectors, and the trellis design has an enduring geometric quality that hasn't dated.
