Also known as: deco widgets, gold widgets, 1920s style widgets, luxury widgets.

Design rules
- Text: Use tall thin capitals with wide letter spacing and center every line.
- Numbers: Center the number and frame it with a thin gold line above and below.
- Bars and rings: Use thin gold arcs, fans and double outlines; keep everything symmetrical.
- Photos: Frame photos with a double gold border and keep them centered.
- Lists: Center each row and separate rows with a short gold rule.
Do
- Center the layout and mirror the left and right sides.
- Use gold only for lines, never for large fills.
Avoid
- Do not left-align; Deco depends on symmetry.
- Do not use heavy bold type.
Wallpaper and icons
Black, deep green or navy wallpapers make the gold lines stand out. Geometric fan patterns also fit.
Thin line icons in gold or ivory; avoid colorful icon packs.
