A Brief History of Marcasite Jewelry
The fascinating stone we call marcasite (more accurately, Pyrite or Iron Sulphite) has been used as an adornment for thousands of years. Archaeologists have found evidence of its use in ancient Greece and Rome. It was also treasured by the Incas, and has been found in ancient native American burial mounds.
More recently, marcasite has enjoyed popularity in fashion over the last 300 years.
