This jewelry set transforms a piece of Canadian history into a minimalist, modern statement. By hand-forging vintage copper pennies—first into rings and then meticulously stretching them into sleek, elongated bars—we’ve created a design that is both rustic and refined.

Each piece carries the warm, unmistakable glow of genuine Canadian copper, preserving the soul of the coin in a completely new silhouette.

The Design Narrative

The transformation process is what makes this set unique. We don't just melt the metal; we reshape it.

  1. The Ring Phase: Each penny is centered and punched, then folded into a seamless ring.

  2. The Stretch: Through careful hammering and tension, the ring is "unrolled" and forged into a linear bar.

  3. The Finish: The edges are softened, and the surface is polished to a high-shine.

Product Features

  • Material: Authentic pre-1997 Canadian pennies (high copper content for a rich, rose-gold hue).

  • Earrings: Lightweight, slender bars suspended from hypoallergenic copper ear wires.

  • Necklace: A matching focal bar hung horizontally  on a delicate 16-inch chain.

  • Sustainable: Upcycled currency turned into wearable art.

  • Handcrafted: No two bars are identical; subtle variations in texture reflect the individual history of the coin.
