5 Huge 19th Century French Paste Earrings At 3 1/4 inches long, these are my biggest pair of Georgian paste earrings. The backs show silver work typical of this period. C. 1800. From the estate of Dorthy Draper -(November 22, 1889 – March 11, 1969). She was an American interior decorator and socialite. A pair of identical earrings were for sale at a prominent French Jeweller stating these are french earrings.

41 Stock Buckle These rare forms of buckles are characterized by 3or 4 roundels on the loop. They were made to be worn on a riding stock and were fashionable in England from 1720-90. "The most formal neckwear of all was the stock. This was a band of white linen of an even finer quality than the shirt's, carefully pleated horizontally and stitched to fit closely over a shirt's collar and tightly around the neck. (Military officers wore black stocks, like the one on General Cornwallis, above left.) The stock had tabs in the back that buckled together with a pronged metal buckled through worked eyelets. Although it sat on the back of a gentleman's neck, the stock buckle could be an important piece of male jewelry. Stock buckles were often made of cut steel, silver, or even gold, and embellished with gemstones or paste jewels, imitation diamonds that glittered in the candlelight, above right." taken from the blog Two Nerdy Girls Loretta Chase & Isabella Bradford.
