The coloured paste piece is really something. With paste jewellery the coloured stones, especially in early pieces, are more expensive jewels. Especially among collectors today. Something like the piece shown here would be highly sought after and cost a small fortune even if the jewels aren't genuine gemstones.

Two of the most unique pieces are the aigrette, made in France around 1810 and later altered for more coloured stones, and the necklace of coloured pastes set in silver-gilt, made in Britain 1800-50.
