According to many beliefs, marcasite is a talisman associated with wisdom, courage, and expression. The Ancient Incans, Greeks and Egyptians all valued marcasite. It was not uncommon to see Cleopatra herself adorned in marcasite gemstones. Marcasite was especially popular in the 18th and 19th centuries of Edwardian jewelry when it was most commonly cut into tiny stones and set in sterling silver. The Art Nouveau period and The Gilded Age weren't shy about using marcasite, often creating jewelry with tiny marcasite gems alongside pearls, diamonds or brightly colored gems. A resurgence of interest in vintage jewelry brought marcasite to heightened popularity again during the 1990s and on.
