FAQs

Georgian black dot paste jewellery refers to 18th and early 19th-century items featuring hand-cut lead glass stones set with a dark dot painted onto the culet or underlying foil backing to simulate the depth of a natural diamond.

These items were typically hand-crafted with closed-back metal settings, usually silver, containing reflective foil-lined cells positioned behind faceted glass paste stones to maximize light reflection.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut paste stones with slight irregularities, closed crimped-collet silver settings, original foil backings, and characteristic small black dots painted at the base of each stone.

A Georgian paste cross can be styled suspended from a slim silver chain, worn on a velvet ribbon, or integrated into a modern charm bracelet for a historic accent.

Keep paste jewellery completely dry, as moisture can penetrate the closed-back settings and discolour the foil lining; clean gently using only a soft, dry cloth.
