This process, which was developed in the 1700s, created the look of a sparkling gemstone or diamond but cost much less than real stones.

This sparkling French paste star necklace from the Victorian (ca1880) era is a real beauty! The large pendant, which is crafted in sterling silver, forms a striking 5-point star design, and adorns eleven bright French paste stones. Each closed back paste stone is bezel set and has multiple facets, creating a beautiful sparkle that stands out dramatically within the antiqued silver setting. The stones vary slightly in size and color, with the largest at the center, and delicate beadwork rests within the spaces in between each stone and at the points, completing the look perfectly. The star pendant has a swing-down bail on the back and attaches to a simple sterling chain which is stamped "STERLING." A spectacular star from the Victorian era, it looks breathtaking on and would make a dazzling addition to any collection!
