Art Deco Style Black Onyx and Marcasite Ring
A sophisticated and elegant statement piece that captures the timeless glamour of the Art Deco era.
Key Features:
Center Stone: The ring is dominated by a prominent, rectangular black onyx or black glass stone. The stone has a smooth, polished finish and is set vertically, creating a long, flattering line on the finger.
Metal & Finish: The entire setting is made from Sterling Silver and has an oxidized or antique finish to enhance the detail.
Marcasite Accents: The central stone is elegantly framed by a border of tiny, faceted marcasite stones. Marcasite (iron pyrite) is known for its metallic sparkle and was extremely popular in the early 20th century.
Gallery & Shoulders: The ring's setting is elongated and features an intricate, open-work gallery on the sides. These sections often incorporate geometric shapes, such as arches, stylized loops, or scalloped edges, which are heavily studded with more marcasite.
Overall Style: The combination of the dark center stone, glittering marcasite, and geometric lines firmly places this piece in the style of vintage Art Deco jewelry (1920s-1930s), making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate historical elegance.
