1996 Irish 1p Coin Hoop Earrings
Free shipping within Republic of Ireland when you spend €65.
I ship worldwide! But just a heads-up if you are ordering from outside the EU: customs fees, import duties, or taxes may apply, depending on your country. These charges are completely out of my hands and are the responsibility of the customer, so do check your local rules to avoid any surprises.
I’m not saying wearing these will make you feel like you’re on a permanent holiday, but it’s a very solid start. I’ve handcrafted these, taking the Irish 1p and adding a handful of repurposed turquoise chips to give them a bit of an edge.
They’re lightweight enough to wear all day, even if your "all day" mostly involves wondering where the time went. It’s a bit of wearable heritage for anyone who misses the weight of a proper penny but prefers it hanging from their ears.
The Details
-
The Coin: Original Irish 1p coins featuring the classic bird design. They’ve seen some history, which is more than I can say for the change currently sitting at the bottom of my handbag.
-
The Stones: Repurposed turquoise chips for a pop of sea-blue drama that contrasts beautifully with the warm copper tones.
-
The Hardware: Simple 25mm rose gold-plated hoops that keep the focus on the bird and the beads.
-
The Vibe: "I am deeply nostalgic for the punt, but I have a very modern appreciation for a statement hoop."
Handmade with love, a bit of history, and a mandatory amount of turquoise.
