Turning to a larger context, I wondered if the neglect of the discount tiffany key rings corpus is possibly linked to broader interests and to preferences of collectors of this period, that is, to issues of taste? The artistic leanings of collectors began to change following the "modern" artists' invention of refreshing abstract styles in easel painting, prints, and sculpture in the early twentieth century. These artistic innovations, originating primarily in artists' studios in Paris, inspired in a broad range of European collectors an increasing preference for geometrically stylized visual forms. This taste spread to designers and the wider public, influencing the interests of scholars as well.Dealers, scholars, publicists, and collectors perceived elements of this new style in certain discount Tiffany Key Rings masks and body sculpture, encouraging greater interest in African art works. Through the 1920s, there was a craze in Paris, Berlin, and elsewhere in Europe for African creations, especially dance, textiles, and sculpture. African masks characterized by an abstract, geometricized style were increasingly favored by collectors and the wider public. Guided by this stylistic preference, art collectors sought out in discount tiffany key rings the feminine-style Dan face mask because, as we have seen, its abstract features formed an elegant, balanced interplay of rounded and angular shapes, vertical and horizontal lines.Offerings in the international art market reflected the increasing modern taste for discount tiffany key rings in carving style wherever it was found in African masks. This favor is reflected in the increasing number of art books published in the late 1920S-1930S illustrating African sculpture, discount tiffany key rings masks and figures, catering to popular interest and potential collectors
