Corvidae Antique has dated this piece to the Georgian era.
The Georgians (c.1714-1837) would paint a black dot on the bottom end of paste stones (the culet) to help give an illusion of depth and make them look more like real diamonds as they glittered in the candlelight.

In excellent antique condition, with a little wear to the facets and some of the foil. One of the stones looks like a historic replacement, it's an old cut but does not have a black dot.
Size: Approximately 2.5 x 3cm, 3.6cm total length including the bail.

Weight: 5.4g.
We currently have a number of lovely Georgian pieces just in (see final photo) which are being added to the shop, see our other listings for more details :)
