The story "Paste" by Henry James readers is sometimes compared with the story "The Necklace" by Guy De Maupassant.
The story tells about a young woman named Charlotte who received a pearl necklace. It belonged to her deceased aunt. The stepson of Charlotte’s aunt, Arthur, gave this necklace to her. He believed that the pearls were fake and ‘paste’ (that is, worthless).
