Recycled silver sixpence coin
This inspiring swallow design is definitely quite a challenge to cut and engrave. The sixpence is such a small coin at only 16 mm diameter working area. Each one of these pendants is handmade from a 100 year old solid silver sixpence coin.

Using a marker pen a quick inspired sketch is dropped on to the surface of the sixpence. I then meticulously carve away the design with a traditional hand engraving tool and cut details using a traditional jewellers saw. Once the details are cut the pendant is given an extremely bright polishing which really brings the coin to life.

As I handcut each coin individually to order every one is completely unique and unusual. They look and feel special.

Handcrafted and recycled in Cambridge, UK.

Size : 19 mm diameter

  1. Michael

    Sixpence charming

    This is a charming piece of jewellery simple idea finished brilliantly great looking piece with 50’s charm suitable for everyone.

  2. Nicki B

    Gorgeous piece – even more lovely in the flesh!

    Was torn between this and the skull sixpence so left it to my husband to decide and so pleased he chose this one. I can wear it everyday, it goes with every outfit and is already one of my favourite pieces in a very spoilt jewellery collection with pieces worth 20x as much. Amazing value and so individual.

  3. Emma

    Lovely necklace, efficient service.

    Beautiful necklace, lovely wrapping and gift bag, perfect for a christening.

    I love my necklace!

    An absolutely beautiful and unique piece of jewellery. I’m so thrilled with it and would highly recommend Les and his work. I hope to add to it in the future.
