FAQs

Coin jewellery became popular during the Victorian era as a form of sentimental remembrance, commemoration of foreign travel, or celebration of monarchical milestones, often utilizing real or commemorative currency.

These pieces typically utilized silver, base metals, or genuine coins with a layer of gold wash or gilding, featuring handcrafted wire hooks or loops soldered directly to the coin edges.

Authenticity is determined by examining the wear patterns on the metal, the composition of the alloy, the method of soldering, and the specific historical portraits stamped on the currency.

They can be paired with contemporary minimalist outfits to allow the historical texture to stand out, or displayed in a velvet-lined glass shadow box as a cabinet of curiosities object.

Store them in a dry, tarnish-resistant lined box away from direct sunlight, and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths which can strip the delicate surface gilding.
