Marcasite jewellery features small, faceted pieces of pyrite set into silver, a technique popularised during the Georgian and Victorian eras and heavily revived during the Art Deco period for its diamond-like sparkle.

Traditional pieces utilise sterling silver or low-grade silver settings combined with polished pyrite stones, individually hand-set into channel or bezel mounts to create intricate geometric or floral designs.

Authentic pieces typically feature individually prong-set stones rather than glued replacements, often accompanied by traditional silver hallmarks and evidence of age-related oxidisation on the metal surface.

These metallic statement pieces pair well with minimal evening wear or velvet fabrics, adding subtle historic texture and reflective detail without overwhelming modern attire.

Marcasite jewellery should never be immersed in liquid cleaner or ultrasonic baths, as moisture can loosen the glued or set stones; instead, clean gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth.
