Emmeline Pankhurst was the leader of the British Suffragette movement in the 19th century and through her efforts won the right for women to vote.

Suffragettes liked to be depicted as feminine. Their jewellery was chosen to counter the stereotypes put forward by opponents that they were mannish or shrieking!

Give Women Votes - Green is for give, white is for women and violet is for votes.

Paste is a heavy, transparent flint glass that simulates the fire and brilliance of gemstones. Green Pastes shine just like Emeralds which are thought to preserve love and symbolise hope.
