By 1937, the company was renamed Monet to reflect its new direction, inspired by the French impressionist Claude Monet. During the 1930s, Monet adapted to the economic hardships by producing exquisite yet affordable jewellery. They used brilliant glass instead of real diamonds, allowing women to maintain elegance without financial strain. Early designs featured meticulous gold-plating, hand-painted pieces.
