French paste is a vintage jewelry term used to describe the practice of using faceted cut glass, cut in the shape of a real gemstone, instead of using gems. This process, which was developed in the 1700s, created the look of a sparkling gemstone or diamond but cost much less than real stones.
A?gorgeous and unique pair of?French paste?earrings from the Victorian (ca1880) era! Crafted in 10kt rosy yellow gold, each earring features a multi-prong set stone hanging from a simple earring wire. The prongs are relatively high,?creating a fabulous?mid-century modern appearance that is visible from the sides. The facets in each stone catch the light beautifully with every turn and closely resemble real diamonds.

A beautiful and?modern design, these?earrings look?absolutely gorgeous and could be?worn everyday!
Measurement: Each earring hangs 7/8" long (including the wire at the top). The prong-set stones measure approximately 1/4" in diameter and are 1/4" thick.?
