Seen a few references to Art Deco in this thread.  Does nobody here know what it actually means (see link)?.  It was (note `was') a design movement in (mostly) architecture and interiors (the Chrysler building is a good example), nothing to do with the `art' contributors here seem to be talking about.

Having said that, the term is misused all over Ebay to describe just about any over-ornamented piece of crap offered for sale :)
