NECKLACE INFORMATION
Many of the necklace / pendant designs are complete. These designs have a sterling silver chain attached to the pendant from both sides. This design is perfect for looking in a mirror to fasten the necklace. It also makes a fabulous feature of the handmade hook catch (and star if chosen). The necklace length you choose includes the length of the actual pendant. Do not worry about the pendant dimensions we will take care of your order. Order the necklace length you would normally wear and the necklace you receive will sit in the perfect position..

So original
I love this although not old enough to recall the coin as legal tender I do recall looking through a small collection my Grandparents had of old coins and the farthing was always my favourite because of the wren who was a favourite of my grandfather’s. Reminds me so much of them I hope one day someone will treat me to this stunning pendant filled with so much meaning xxx

A much loved gift.
I purchased this for my mum’s 60th birthday. My mum is a keen bird watcher and loved the Wren. Being able to order a 1954 coin was the icing on the cake. Thankyou so much Les

What a great way to pay tribute to our old coinage – by making it into something so special.
This coin has been magically transformed back to something of value. I don’t remember the farthing but I did use the ‘old money’ and it brings back such memories. The Jenny Wren is my mum’s favourite and I will be saving up to buy this for her soon.

Lovely
Very pleased with this charming little pendant. I love the little jenny wren, and the fact that you can have one from a memorable year is great idea. I have had several comments about how nice it looks. Thank you.

Wonderful unique gift idea!
My sister loved her gift thank you! but it would be good if a necklace in a copper colour was available to purchase as the silver ones are not suitable and the ‘complimentary’ version is a bit young for the more mature customers. Fortunately she has so much jewellery she managed to find something to match!

Very fitting gift.
I brought the Jenny Wren necklace as a gift for my mum’s birthday. Wrens are a family favourite – my Great Grandad used to own an iron works called the Wren’s Nest, and my mum’s house is also called Wren’s Nest. It was especially nice that I could chose a coin with my mums year of birth on it. Mum really likes her new necklace.

Beautiful pendant, fantastic service
I bought this beautiful and unusual pendant for my younger daughter’s sixteenth birthday. I wanted something really special to mark the occasion and she loves it. As well as the quality of the craftsmanship, I really appreciated the attention to detail that went into its presentation (wrapped in tissue paper, with confetti, and the whole thing in a cotton gift bag). I also had to make some special requests regarding the timing of delivery, and the service was great.

Perfect gift
My dad has always called my mum Jenny Wren as her name is Jenny so it’s the perfect gift especially as it had her birth year in it too! Absolutely gorgeous!
Andy –
She LOVES it!
We stumbled across the Hairy Growler stall at Glastonbury Festival. My girlfriend loved the farthing pendant. With her birthday a month later I stored this info and ordered online on our return. It arrived within a couple of weeks and she absolutely LOVES it! It’s even more special knowing that it has been created by hand. Thank you for earning me some brownie points 🙂
Joanna (verified owner) –
Beautiful and unique
I bought this necklace for my mum whose name is Jenny, hence the Jenny wren! And the fact that it had her birth year on it too made it the perfect birthday present! Thank you!

Your Wren for My Jenny!
Thank you for creating the Jenny Wren necklace for my very own Jenny Wren. I gave it to her for her birthday as a special gift from Me to Her as it was minted originally in the year of my birth so it was of particular significance. She was as delighted with it as I was so thank you again.

Such quality and attention to detail on one of the lower price items. Delicate metalwork a very lovely gift.

The Jenny Wren necklace is a beautifully made, stunningly unusual piece of jewellery. It was purchased as gift and the recipient was overjoyed. I will definitely be visiting the Hairy Growler again for those unique, special gifts.

Absolutely beautiful. Really appreciate the work that goes in to your pieces. I have a fox necklace and butterfly wing earings that my husband bought me a couple of years ago, I love them but I think the jenny wren Is one of my favourites. Thankyou very much.

I bought this Wren Farthing for my partner and we are both very pleased with the coin itself. It has been expertly cut out and finished. However, we are a little disappointed in the ring that attaches it to the chord. It is not as well finished as the coin itself. Also, the ends of the chord have both come undone in less than a week. We may have to have someone else fit a different one/type. I would have chosen a chain, but a copper option wasn’t available.

Loved this Jenny Wren – I have bought it for my mother’s birthday and chose the year of her birth. An original and unusual gift. The service is second to none, as is the quality
