Marcasite and Mother-of-Pearl Pendant Necklace


The focal piece of this necklace is a marcasite, mother-of-pearl and sterling silver signed vintage brooch with a double strand of vintage faceted Czech glass beads. Marcasite jewelry is made with pyrite used as a gemstone.
This piece was just chosen for a photoshoot in Napa to compliment a designer's dress.
