City of London Jewellers present the West Yorkshire Marcasite Silver Leaf Brooch.
Measurements:- 87mm x 24mm.
Marcasite Silver Leaf Brooch BRS00050.
Marcasite Leaf Brooch’s were very popular in the Victorian era as were many other styles of brooch and were traditionally worn on the left side which was considered correct and sophisticated by people in high society. They are an accessory a lot of us tend to write off as outdated, but now days people are far more creative. Brooches are fast becoming a new trend again with people wanting to make they’re own style statement, are wearing them not only on coat and jacket lapels, scarfs, jeans but even on the sides of handbags etc.
The brooch is one of the most fun and versatile piece’s of jewellery that can be strategically placed anywhere on our outfits to give them more of a personal touch, they can be worn singularly in pairs or even in cluster’s, brooches can look really cool when styled right and can make you stand out from the crowd. Try wearing them at different angles to see what suits you best.
In my opinion everyone should have a Marcasite Silver Leaf Brooch and several other brooches to go with different looks, or at least one for casual wear and one for a more formal dress.

Jewellers’ meaning
In marcasite jewellery, pyrite used as a gemstone is called “marcasite” – that is, marcasite jewellery such as this brooch is made from pyrite, not from the mineral marcasite. Marcasite in the scientific sense is not used as a gem due to its brittleness. In the late medieval and early modern eras the word “marcasite” meant all iron sulphides in general, including both pyrite and the mineral marcasite. The narrower, modern scientific definition for marcasite as orthorhombic iron sulphide dates from 1845. The jewellers’ sense for the word “marcasite” pre-dates this 1845 scientific redefinition.
