LANCASTRIAN JEWELLERSArt Deco Paste Silver Riviere Necklace
This stunning Art Deco Sterling Silver and Old Cut Paste Riviere Necklace dates to the 1920\'s and features many Purple colour Paste stones which appear just like Amethysts.

Paste is a type of glass which has been used since the 18th century. During the 18th and early 19th century fine Diamond and precious stone jewellery was often part of the family heirloom therefore they would have replicas made from Paste to safeguard their heritage. They would take their paste jewels to grand functions and to the party season in London where admirers wouldn’t be able to know the difference. This is now why Paste jewellery is still so highly sought after, as it was made with just the same amount of highly skilled craftsmanship as antique fine precious jewellery, so much so that it has become a collector’s item.

This is a stunning necklace which would make the perfect gift or a great addition to any collection.
