About Us
Handmade sustainable jewellery
At Silver Hollow Jewellery we handcraft eco-friendly jewellery from sustainable materials. All of our sterling silver rings, chains, bracelets, pendants and earrings are made from 100% recycled sterling silver. We also have more sustainable jewellery including coin rings, spoon rings, and more recycled pieces. Made in the UK, we take pride in our attention to detail, customer service and unique designs.
Meet the maker
First of all, I'll introduce myself if you haven't met me already- I'm Dan, the owner and sole employee of Silver Hollow Jewellery (so far...). This means I'm responsible for every step our jewellery takes before it reaches you: design, handcrafting, packaging and distribution. I run Silver Hollow Jewellery full time and love everything from our high street markets, crafting the pieces themselves, marketing and social media management and even post office trips. I especially love the creativity that this job brings with it, which I've mainly gained thanks to my Dad who used to teach me to draw when I was younger.
How it all started
Silver Hollow Jewellery started from the depths of lockdown boredom in a shed in the back garden of a university house. While scrolling online I found a video of someone making a ring from a coin and for some reason, I couldn't get it out of my head. I liked the idea of keeping the original detail from something with history, and the sustainable nature of recycling this into something you can wear. So, on a hot day in the middle of the pandemic, I ordered a ring mandrel (metal rod) and a Half Crown coin. It took the best part of a few hours to hammer this coin I had drilled a hole into, for me to make a half-convincing ring. From there I continued making rings from old coins, slowly expanding my tools until I felt ready to sell a few online. The shed in the back garden was now full of odd tools and coins, and a large 6-ton press which I still use to make many of my coin rings and other pieces. The addition of coin pendants, coin earrings, and spoon rings widened our product range. Now we specialise more in solid sterling silver pieces, while still making many of the recycled coin and cutlery jewellery that began this journey.
