Capture the essence of Ireland with this unique necklace featuring an Irish sixpence coin adorned with a majestic Irish wolfhound dog. The set includes two coins that hang delicately from a sterling silver chain, creating a stunning accessory. Crafted with care, this necklace showcases the rich history and natural beauty of Ireland.

Care Instructions: Avoid contact with harsh chemicals or excessive water. Gently polish with a soft cloth. Read more here: Caring for Your Post-1920 Coin Necklace

One side of the coin has a Wolfhound dog and the Irish harp on the other side.

"Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a silver sixpence in her shoe". The Sixpence is believed to bring wealth and happiness in the marriage so why not modernise the tradition and gift a pair of beautiful sixpences to the bride to wear as a necklace instead? Ideal as bridesmaids gifts too! Much sought after, this style of necklace has become popular with celebrities due to its versatility and simplicity. It would look equally as good teamed with a casual daytime outfit as it would finishing off an evening dress. A fantastic wedding gift, anniversary gift, birthday gift - anything gift!

Please note that these coins are cupronickel so please consider this if you have known severe allergies. Anyone who suspects that they or the wearer of this necklace should strongly consider if they have a nickel allergy - although I have taken steps to protect the wearer a small amount of nickel may still make contact with the skin. If you suspect you may be intolerant please find a very similar listing to this in my shop where I use Sterling silver sixpence coins. These sterling silver necklaces are hypoallergenic.

Each necklace takes days to make with meticulous attention to detail at every stage. We only use genuine publicly circulated coins with every effort made to use those with minimal marking rejecting any that have become too worn by the hands of time. Finished necklaces may vary slightly from the images shown. Every one is handled carefully to ensure you receive the highest quality product possible.
