A jewelry recycler is not interested in low value stones like marcasite. They'll pop the marcasite, weigh the silver, and pay you according to grade, weight, and current price.

Is marcasite jewelry old?

The simple answer is... it depends. Marcasite jewellery was first produced by the ancient Greeks and Egyptians, so there is some marcasite jewellery of genuine antiquity around. However as it is quite a delicate material, most surviving pieces will be in museums or universities by now. More common is marcasite jewellery from the Victorian era (1800s) when it was also very popular. A lot of this can be recognised by the Art Deco styling and bird and animal motifs. Finally modern marcasite jewellery often borrows from older, vintage styles and can look just as good. By its very nature even freshly produced marcasite has that vintage/antique "look". So most of what you will see for sale in the shops (or, for example on our website) is newly made marcasite, it just looks old.
