About

Where classic vintage coins meet contemporary elegance

As a child I inherited a coin collection sparking my fascination for intricate beautiful metal art work. I taught myself how to re-craft pre-decimal coins into wearable jewellery and loved that not only were the coins pieces of art in their own right but that they also represented significant points in history.

Few other objects can conjure up memories than a coin from childhood and my customers are thrilled to once again hold a shiny sixpence in their hands. If these coins could speak they would surely have quite a story to tell and it is the history of these items in their splendid designs, edges, curves and angles that I strive to celebrate here at Mintique Of Cambridge.

Wearable antiques upcycled into modern pieces - all the history of the original coin is celebrated and revived into a contemporary item of jewellery.
