Bird coin necklace – handmade and recycled Half Penny jewellery

Inspired by a friendly little daily visitor to my garden, sitting on a branch in a tree opposite my workshop window. I decided that the sketch would really come to life if I carefully hand cut the design out of an old English half penny coin.

Firstly, I draw the design freehand drawn onto the sterling silver coin. Then I drill several holes and cut the sections delicately away. I file, smooth and finally polish the edges. The end result is a lovely, original, recycled pendant with a captivating history. Each one of the coin pendants I create is different, unusual and unique.

Handcrafted and recycled in Cambridge, UK.

Size : Approx 25 mm diameter

  3. FraserClan

    Old meets new

    The perfect blend of yesteryear with modern techniques and timeless design which would look beautiful on any wearer while remain understated rather than overpowering.

    Another present from the Hairy Growler that was well received, as usual, by my wife. The idea of a birthday year is great. Luckily coins were in circulation when she was born 🙂
