Tuatara 5c Coin Earrings (NZ, Sterling Silver Hooks)

Old New Zealand 5 cent coins, once jingling in pockets and long out of circulation, given a second life as earrings.

Each coin is hand-polished, drilled, and bevelled, then finished with Renaissance Wax until it shines like new - though some of the older coins may show a bit of wear - that's part of their history too.

The hooks are sterling silver, my own design, handmade with rounded, polished ends rather than the sharp cut edges you'll find on mass-produced findings.

Choose your favourite year (or your birth year) from what's available - 1967 to 2003, though I don't have every year so if it's not listed, I don't have it.

Notes: Packaging is simple and minimal – just enough to keep them safe in transit. Each pair is made to order, so please allow an extra day for dispatch.

Years available:
1967,1970, 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975, 1978, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999,2000, 2001, 2002, 2003.

I bought these earrings to celebrate the year of birth for myself and my daughter.
They are lightweight and easy to wear while looking fabulous!
