Sterling Marcasite Rose Ring & Pendant - Two-piece sterling silver set featuring a detailed rose motif in both ring and pendant form. The ring, size 7 3/4, showcases a sculptural rose bloom set with marcasite stones arranged in a beaded-edge design, with the band exhibiting light surface wear consistent with vintage wear. The matching pendant depicts a dimensional rose bloom suspended from a sterling 18-inch chain with spring-ring clasp, the chain showing natural aging with scattered light scratches. Marcasite, an iron sulfide mineral, was especially popular in early 20th-century design for its crystalline geometric sparkle and oxidized contrast against white metal. Both pieces display the characteristic dark patina and faceted stone setting typical of this era. Total weight 4.6 dwt.
