Sean Rainey - Re-minted ornate threepence earrings

A lovely pair of recycled coin earrings from Aotearoa.  These threepence earrings come as elegant drops with a gorgeous, Grecian style flow.  These earrings measure 55cm from the top of the hook to the base of the coins. 

About the Artist: Sean has been making recycled jewellery for well over a decade.  As a child, he used to love building little car and plane models, and later on, he developed a penchant for gadgets.  This passion has now flowed into jewellery making.

Artistic Process:  Sean rescues found objects that would have been otherwise discarded and gives them new life as jewellery pieces.  Recycled components are usually in the form of intricate vintage timepieces and nostalgic coins from Aotearoa, but he has also used military buttons, metal milk tokens and even old bullets to give them a better life.  He uses his silversmithing skills to combine lovely recycled elements with  nature- themed charms and embellishments and finishes each piece by hand.

Delivery Timeframe: Please note the flower stems are made to order, and take at least three to five business days to make. If you need them sooner, please contact us.
