This month at Mirror80, we’ve been celebrating the minimalist geometric aesthetic that’s put its stamp on the modern world of interior design through materials such as marble and brass. As it turns out, there’s a ton of overlap between this look and ’80s geometric style! With the help of our favorite Etsy shops, today we take a look at the way geo design spans the decades, from the 1980s to the present. Above we see a stunning pair of ’80s Yves Saint Laurent Gold Plated and Black Enamel Earrings from Treasure Trove NYC.

I just purchased this Mixed Metal Honeycomb Hexagon Necklace from Clementine! The use of sterling silver and a 14-karat goldfill chain creates a striking display of geometry:

These Monet Enamel Earrings from The ’80s Shop are straight from the Decade of Decadence. Brands such as Monet and Trifari produced a large amount of costume jewelry in the 1980s–which has held up remarkably well! Right angles reign in the design below:

This morning I came across the Etsy shop of Curtis Bort. And I proceeded to order five geometric stone selections, including this Amazonite Feldspar Pendant! There’s power in bold forms, and I can’t wait to wear this piece…

Remember this ’80s Metal Collar Necklace from Pinguim, previously featured in our geometric montage? Tin blocks create a 3-D look that’s flawlessly modern:
