Hand-Hammered Gold-Plated Silver & Antique Indian Coin Bracelet

ONE-OFF PIECE

This is one of those pieces of jewellery that you can keep looking at and discovering something new.

Handmade in Poland, the bracelet brings together delicate hand-hammered silver circles, fine chains and an original old Indian coin, creating a beautifully layered piece with a slightly bohemian feel. I particularly love the contrast between the irregular, almost weightless circles and the solidity of the old coin at its centre.

The bracelet is made from silver and double plated in 14-carat gold. Each of the larger circles has been hammered by hand, leaving subtle variations in their shape and surface that catch the light beautifully. The different chains and links are then brought together by hand, giving the bracelet its wonderfully fluid, unstructured character.

At its heart sits an old Indian coin. Rather than simply adding a decorative pendant, it gives the piece a little history — something from another place and another time, now given a completely new life.

I would wear it with crisp oversized white shirt, sleeves casually rolled back, jeans or linen trousers. No other bracelet, perhaps just tiny gold earrings.

Or oatmeal, cream, camel or chocolate knit with the bracelet sitting against the wrist. The warm 24ct gold would look gorgeous with those natural colours.

Care Instructions

Your bracelet has been individually handcrafted and should be treated with a little care to keep it looking beautiful.

• Avoid contact with water, perfume, hairspray, creams and household chemicals, as these may affect the gold-plated finish.
• Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
• After wearing, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove natural oils and moisture.
• Store separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to help prevent scratching and tarnishing.
• Please avoid abrasive jewellery cleaners or polishing cloths, which can gradually remove the gold plating.

As with all gold-plated jewellery, the finish may naturally soften and develop character over time depending on how often it is worn and cared for. The antique coin also carries the marks and patina of its previous life — something we consider part of the beauty and individuality of the piece.

A little care will help you enjoy it for many years to come.
