Art in Coin
Highland Park, NJ

I have been creating jewelry from foreign coins since 1975. I hand-carve these coins into wearable art.  We rarely think of coins as works of art, but by creating negative space in metal, I am able to take foreign coins and sculpture very delicate and beautiful visual artwork – worn mostly as pendants and earrings.  My primary tool is a jeweler’s saw (coping saw).  I can also work together with individuals to create and develop new ideas from any coin.
