Art Deco Silver & Marcasite Leaf & Bud Brooch

187H
821 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A smart silver brooch set with graduated marcasite (iron pyrites) in the form of a leaf and bud spray. It was made circa 1920.  At that time marcasite was used a lot in costume jewellery as it imitated rose diamonds and twinkled in the light.  This type of brooch looks great on a lapel.
