All jewellery listed here that says silver is sterling silver, I do not use silver plate at all. There will be elements of sterling silver in every design (except keyrings), some will be completely so, others may have combinations of copper, brass, bronze, glass, enamel, pewter, resin, upcycled biscuit tins and pre-decimal coins and/or semi-precious stones as well. Many of the designs are one-of-a-kind.

Full description

A guitar plectrum hand cut (not with a laser but with a thin-bladed jewellers saw) from a pre-decimal bronze penny coin. This one is from 1906 and the reign of Edward VII. This is the only item that I make that the fitting, in this case the metal keyring mechanism itself, is NOT sterling silver.

Despatched wrapped in tissue paper and organza bag via the Royal Mail standard service in the UK. (Extra items added to the order will need an additional postal charge and upgraded to my usual Royal Mail Signed For service). Cleaning guide provided.

Upcycled in Lancashire.

It is obviously not in mint condition - all marks and scratches are a reflection of it's age and the decades of use it has experienced.

This one is in stock and ready to go. If you want a particular year, this will take time to make. These coins were minted until 1967 (though not every year) but I have most of the years they were available. I'm using the older ones for guitar picks, rather than for the jewellery I usually make, as they are more worn and slightly thinner than the later, mint dates, so more suitable for practical use.

FYI - Bronze is made up of 95% copper, 4% tin, 1% zinc.

Bronze represents the 8th wedding anniversary in the traditional calendar and the 19th in the modern version.

Designed by Silvana Briers in Ashton-in-Makerfield, Lancashire
