Marcasite Jewelry is in Vogue in Recent Times
Marcasite jewelry was originally found in Greece. It was also found in the burial grounds of the Inca people residing in Latin America. Legends have it that even Cleopatra wore Marcasite as an element that would preserve her beauty. This jewelry was particularly popular during the 18th and 19th century in Britain and even Queen Victoria was reportedly seen flaunting this jewelry on various occasions. The second half of the 19th century saw a rise in demand of this jewelry as this was less expensive than diamonds, yet were very beautiful.
What is Marcasite?
This stone is mined in South America and is derived from a natural mineral called iron sulfide. Marcasite can also be related to iron pyrite which is also known as “Fools Gold”. This is so because the jewel has several similarities to gold but its value is quite low compared to that of gold. Many a time even miners mistake it for gold. Marcasite is available in a variety of colors ranging from dark grey to black that also consists of sparks of yellow or gold throughout the stone. In earlier days marcasite was considered to reduce negative energy and improve communication skills.
Marcasite Becoming Fashionable
As we have already seen that Marcasite jewelry became famous during the Victorian Era. Its black color was ideal for somber clothing during the end of the Queen’s reign. They were very common and were designed with cameo pendants, brooches, and were cast on ivory. This kind of jewelry is in vogue these days. A whole range of “vintage style” is available these days where in you will find Marcasite jewelry designed with traditional materials to form new fashionable pieces.
