Leon Georgian Paste Cluster Ring

Sale price$1,458.00

THE STORY:

Set in sterling silver with a solid gold ring base, these Georgian stones hailing from the 1700s have kept their special luster and sparkle for more than 200 years. The Kimberly mines of South Africa weren't discovered until 1869-71--with diamonds not as accessible or commonly in circulation, jewelers resorted to making their own "Paste" stones as a more common and cost effect alternative to diamonds. These stones were handmade from a crystal compound and polished with metal powder until it shimmered like a gemstone. Paste accessories were the most sought after jewelry of the Georgian era of the 1700s.
