A riviere necklace is a style of jewellery featuring a continuous strand of individually set gemstones or paste stones of similar size or graduating dimensions, popular during the Georgian and Victorian eras.

Antique paste jewellery typically utilises high-lead glass hand-cut and polished to imitate precious gemstones, usually set in silver or gold-backed settings.

Authentic pieces often feature closed-back foiled settings, hand-cut stones with slightly irregular facets, and metalwork consistent with period manufacturing techniques like hand-bezel settings.

Antique pieces can be paired with minimalist modern attire to create a striking contrast, allowing the historical craftsmanship and subtle sparkle to serve as a focal point.

Antique paste pieces should never be submerged in water or cleaned with harsh chemicals, as moisture can damage the fragile foil backings behind the stones; instead, use a soft, dry cloth for gentle dusting.
