Step back into the candlelit glow of a Regency ballroom with this breath-taking antique Georgian paste riviere collar, a rare and radiant survivor from an age defined by romance. Handcrafted circa 1820, this 15.5-inch necklace is set with fiery red paste cushions that evoke a sense of smouldering passion, interspersed with shimmering old-cut “diamond” paste flowers. These are not mere glass imitations, they are skilfully hand-lapped gems, foil-backed to capture and reflect the light with a captivating, almost otherworldly brilliance - just as they would have sparkled in candlelit theatres and grand country estates in the early 19th Century.
An exceptionally rare antique find for the discerning Georgian collector or anyone seeking a striking antique statement with a soul, this collar sits elegantly at the neckline, commanding attention with effortless grace. Two centuries later, this piece remains in remarkable condition, finished with a secure box clasp, ready to be worn and admired once more.
