The Twin Bird Necklace is a lyrical composition of freshwater pearls and lapis lazuli beads, suspended from a converted bird-shaped marcasite brooch and complemented by a small piece of marcasite once worn as an earring. The result is a necklace that balances Victorian craftsmanship with modern sensibility, transforming antique fragments into a wearable story.
Marcasite jewellery flourished in the Victorian era, where gem cutters created rose-cut facets set into sterling silver, often paired with onyx or pearls. Its delicate sparkle brought understated glamour to everyday life. Following WWII, marcasite experienced a revival, adorning shoes, lapels, earrings, and pendants when resources were limited, providing joyful sparkle and accessibility. Historically, marcasite was also believed to protect against negative energies, inspire creativity, and foster courage and expression — qualities that made it highly valued among artists, students, and thoughtful collectors alike.
Through Flew Designs’ meticulous craftsmanship, the Twin Bird Necklace reimagines these antique pieces, blending narrative, artistry, and historical resonance. It is a statement of elegance and whimsy, where fragments of the past are transformed into a singular, contemporary work of jewellery.
