Art Deco Silver & Marcasite Bow Brooch feed-gender-unisex

Art Deco Silver & Marcasite Bow Brooch feed-gender-unisexA classic bow design a favourite since the Renaissance. The bow is very sculptural, and it looks superb on. Marcasite jewellery was very popular in the 1920s due to the fashion of the light and dark designs, and it was also more affordable. Marcasite gemstone are very confusingly actually cut and polished pieces of pyrite (fool's gold) and not, as the name suggests, marcasite (another actual gemstone!)
