DESIGN INSPIRATION

Handcrafted from the authentic 1940 Irish Free State Half Crown silver coin, a treasured relic of Irish history. Minted under the name Saorstát Éireann (Irish Free State), this coin carries powerful Celtic heritage. One side displays the legendary Brian Ború harp, Ireland’s national emblem, while the reverse bears the noble Irish Hunter horse, marked with Gaelic script Leat Coróin meaning “Half Crown”.

We transform this antique silver coin into a wearable heirloom ring. The historic Gaelic inscriptions and horse & harp motifs are preserved on the band, letting you carry a piece of 1940s Irish history on your hand. Perfect for history enthusiasts, Celtic culture lovers, and anyone seeking a unique vintage men’s ring with deep storytelling.

Craftsmanship

Each ring is hand-forged by skilled artisans, using a traditional coin ring pressing technique. The antique silver coin is carefully annealed and slowly formed into a solid ring band, preserving the original coin relief, Gaelic lettering and iconic horse & harp design.

We carefully polish the inner band to remove sharp edges for daily comfort, while retaining the natural aged patina of the century-old silver coin on the outer surface. Every scratch, tone and texture on the band is original character from the circulated coin, not artificial printing. This is not a cheap cast replica — it is a genuine wearable artifact made from real historic silver coin.

Each silver coin is adjusted to take only the best three segments of the pattern

Made by cutting, polishing and welding

Comfort far exceeds that of traditional ring
