Paste is a leaded glass cut by hand to imitate diamonds and commonly used in the Victorian period. They are held securely in a silver setting. Silver was often used in the early 20th century to reflect the light of diamonds or other white stones to make them appear larger. These beauties shine very well and have very little facet wear despite their age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONDITION NOTES:\u003cbr\u003eHallmarked with an eagle head by the Paris assay office.
