Details

Penny Arcade transforms an old Australian pre-decimal penny into a luminous wearable object.

The original coin has been hand painted and sealed beneath a protective finish, allowing its aged textures and shifting metallic tones to glow with unexpected richness. Greens, golds, and oxidised browns move across the surface like a tiny landscape, giving the piece a sense of history and atmosphere.

There is something compelling about obsolete currency — objects once handled constantly that slowly drift into obscurity. Penny Arcade reimagines that humble material as ornament, preserving both its familiarity and its mystery.

The broad sterling silver setting gives the ring a bold, sculptural presence while remaining comfortable to wear.

The coin measures approximately 33mm across and 30mm from top to bottom.

Ring size M (16.3mm internal diameter).

What It Is

A sterling silver ring featuring a hand-painted Australian pre-decimal penny with a protective finish.

What It is Made Of

Sterling silver, vintage Australian pre-decimal penny, hand-applied paint, and protective coating.

How to Use

Wear as a statement ring or conversation piece. Avoid prolonged water exposure and harsh chemicals to preserve the painted surface and protective coating.

Notes

This is a one-off original artwork by Rose Agnew. The ring is not resizable, though related pieces may be commissioned in alternative sizes.
