Georgian paste riviere necklace

EDITOR'S REVIEW

Since it first opened in 1940, Kentshire Galleries has become a treasure trove of antique jewelry, from mid-century time periods all the way back to pieces such as this Georgian paste riviere necklace. This antique gold necklace is set with cushion-cut emerald paste in a foil-back setting, circa 1810. The emerald paste makes the piece more affordable for collectors, even though the cuts are more unique than the round or oval shapes typical in these types of necklaces.
