Georgian Silver & Red Paste Round Earrings

139R
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

A great pair of red paste earrings that were made in the Georgian period circa 1800-1820. They were most likely buttons originally that have been converted by adding gold wires. The paste is the most wonderful vibrant ruby red with flashes of reflected light from the foiling beneath. The high crown also displays the colour beautifully from the sides.

Ollys Pick

The colour is to die for in these earrings!
