A glittering exhibition of paste and other jewellery dating from the golden years of the 18th and 19th centuries This exhibition has now finished. Catalogues are still available through the link below or in hardback from our New Bond Street store
The exhibition, comprising over 140 pieces, most of which come from a private collection, provides a comprehensive overview of paste between 1750 and 1900. It is accompanied by a fully-illustrated catalogue written by Diana Scarisbrick, the world-renowned jewellery historian, with a foreword by Anna Wintour, Editor-in-Chief of American Vogue since 1988. As the first publication on the subject for over 30 years, it throws new light on an area of jewellery that has been rather neglected.
Remarkably, the jewellery, with its wonderful colours and wearable designs, has not dated and still appeals to women today and is relatively accessible with prices ranging from £500 to over £25,000.
