Authentic antique Palestinian coins transformed into earrings in Jerusalem.
In his workshop in Jerusalem’s Old City, Ahmad transforms original Palestinian coins into jewellery, individually handcrafting their settings from sterling silver 925.
Each earring is made from an authentic antique Palestinian coin measuring approximately 2 cm in diameter. Their size preserves the original details and inscriptions of the coins while creating an elegant and easy-to-wear pair of earrings.
These are not reproductions: the genuine antique coins form the very heart of the jewellery.
Every pair is unique
Having survived through the decades, every original coin has its own individual characteristics. The year, patina, shades and natural signs of age may vary from those shown in the photographs.
These variations are part of the character of antique coins and make every pair naturally unique.
A piece of Palestinian monetary history
The Palestine pound (جُنَيْه فِلَسْطِينِيّ) was introduced in 1927 and used during the British Mandate period. It followed a period in which the Egyptian pound circulated in Palestine after Ottoman currency ceased to be used.
Coins and banknotes issued under the authority of the Palestine Currency Board featured inscriptions in Arabic, English and Hebrew.
Today, these original coins remain tangible witnesses to the monetary system that existed in Palestine before 1948. Ahmad gives them a new life by transforming them by hand in his Jerusalem workshop.
The result is a piece that allows you to wear an authentic fragment of Palestinian history, handcrafted into an elegant and distinctive piece of jewellery.
Also available
Ahmad also transforms this authentic Palestinian coin into a pendant, ring or bracelet, allowing you to choose the piece that best suits you.
Avoid contact with water, perfume, cosmetics and chemical products.
Gently clean the silver elements with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive products and metal cleaners on the antique coins to preserve their natural patina.
