seahorse jewellery – handmade and Recycled silver Florin coin seahorses in love necklace.

This gorgeous new necklace was created after finding a wonderfully inspiring photograph. The photograph was taken by an award winning deep sea photographer David Henshaw of Digital Diving.   You can see this inspiring photograph HERE .

As soon as i saw this beautiful moment capture with such amazing photography skills i knew i had to try and capture the moment in a piece of recycled silver!

Seahorses appear to have lifelong monogamy, steadfast loyalty, and true devotion due to their unique mating rituals where pairs bond for life, engage in synchronized daily dances to reaffirm their connection, and where the male carries the eggs to term.

Seahorses form strong, monogamous pairs, often remaining with the same mate for life, making them a powerful symbol of true love and an ideal representation of a lasting relationship.

Each morning, bonded seahorse couples greet each other with a synchronized dance and touch, reaffirming their strong bond and commitment to one another. This consistent daily “dating” reinforces their connection and devotion, representing steadfastness and loyalty in love. Their lives are intertwined, with the daily reunion and the shared journey of raising young representing a profound and beautiful form of unity

A sterling silver Victorian One Tenth of a Pound coin is used. I have flattened the coin and carefully sketched the loving pair on to the flattened surface. This basic outline, guide sketch is then embellished and brought to life using a traditional piercing saw.

The surface of the coin is covered in its original coin details which add to the interest and depth of the seahorses. This is added to with the help of a small hammer and chisel. Each necklace i create is individually hand cut from 100% recycled sterling silver.
