Crafted with Love

We handcrafted this jewelry using genuine coins that were minted. Each coin bears the gentle marks of time - minimal scratches and scars acquired over the years as they journeyed from hand to hand. These beautiful traces of history only enhance the character of each piece, celebrating its uniqueness.

Our goal was to breathe new life into coins that have languished in forgotten drawers, losing their purpose as currency. By treating each coin as a work of art, we carefully selected details and jewelry elements that showcase their authenticity and beauty.

It's important to note that each coin features a unique year, symbolizing its individual history. You have the option to personalize the selection by choosing a year that holds significance for you.

Minerva

Minerva, the Roman goddess featured on Italian coins, symbolizes wisdom, strength, and strategic insight. Known as the goddess of war, justice, and crafts, Minerva embodies both intellect and bravery, inspiring people to pursue knowledge and defend truth. In Roman mythology, she was the protector of artisans, poets, and scholars, guiding them in the pursuit of excellence and integrity.

Jewelry crafted from coins featuring Minerva reflects values of wisdom, resilience, and creativity, making it a meaningful piece for those who admire these traits. For collectors, wearing Minerva’s image is a tribute to the timeless ideals of courage and intellect, as well as a nod to the rich legacy of ancient Rome.
