Love doves...
This gorgeous 'love-doves' necklace has been carefully and lovingly crafted
from three sterling silver English shilling coinscirca 1880's. The majority
of coins circulated over a hundred years ago are pure silver and the ones
that are still remaining are in poor condition, from the point of view
of a coin collector. The coins are thus only valued for their inherent
scrap silver value, which is obviously a real shame. So rather than them
being melted i like to flatten the coins and use the history and life
of the coin as an extra element of interest and beauty.
The resultant
sterling silver love doves necklace is suspended from a delicate unobtrusive
silver chain. After a final polish the pendant is finished with a cute bronze star cut from an old three pence.
