FAQs

A riviere necklace features a continuous line of individually set gemstones or paste glass, often seamless in construction to place complete visual emphasis on the stones around the neck.

Edwardian paste jewellery typically utilised high-lead content glass cut to imitate precious gemstones, mounted in metals such as gold gilt, silver, or base alloy collet settings.

Authentic antique paste pieces often feature hand-cut faceting, closed or collet bezel settings, subtle wear to the metal gilding, and period-accurate link constructions or clasps.

An antique riviere necklace can be styled as a focal piece alongside high-neck collars, open silk shirts, or layered with delicate plain gold chains for a modern look.

Paste glass jewellery should be kept away from water, steam, and chemical cleaners to prevent moisture from damaging the foil backings or setting gilding; wipe gently with a clean, dry cloth.
