Each piece of made in Israel jewelry from ancient coins is a work of art. Because the ancient coins are all slightly different in patina and in their pattern of wear, and because each pendant, ring, bracelet, or earring is crafted by hand, you can be assured that your made in Israel jewelry is unlike anyone else’s.
Jewelry made from ancient coins is both beautiful and historic. Because of the intimate connection between these ancient coins and Jewish and Christian history, ancient coin pieces of made in Israel jewelry are items that will be proudly handed down from one generation to the next.
Coins used to make one-of-a-kind ancient coin jewelry come from several important periods in the history of the Holy Land. Some coins are from the Maccabean era, while others are from the time of the siege at Masada, and still others come from the Bar Kochba revolt in 132-135 CE. Imagine holding in your hands, for example, a ring set with a coin that was specially struck under the leader Simon Bar Kochba proclaiming “For the Freedom of Israel” during a time when the Jewish people successfully rebelled against Roman persecution.
Think of how it would feel to wear a pendant made from one of the widow’s mite coins exactly like the one that Jesus spoke about in his parable of the impoverished widow in the Gospel of Mark. Imagine the sense of history you would have wearing a bracelet that included an ancient coin of the type found in a cache at Masada after more than 900 Jews chose to die there rather than submit to Roman capture.
