FAQs

Paste jewellery features hand-cut glass designed to imitate gemstones, gaining immense popularity during the Georgian and Victorian eras as a luxury accessory in its own right rather than a mere substitute for diamonds.

Authentic period pieces are typically crafted from sterling silver or low-carat gold, featuring hand-set stones backed with foil or closed-back settings to enhance light reflection and colour depth.

Key indicators of age include hand-cut facets with slight irregularities, closed-back metal settings, hand-bezeled stones, and natural patina or oxidisation on the sterling silver components.

An antique brooch can be pinned to a structured blazer lapel, fastened onto a silk scarf, or displayed inside a glass shadow box frame as a piece of miniature wall art.

Keep paste jewellery away from water, perfumes, and harsh chemicals, as moisture can seep behind closed-back settings and damage the foil backing. Clean gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth.
