To wear Marianne is to wear:
-
A belief in freedom and self-determination
-
A reverence for republican ideals and shared humanity
-
A fragment of European social history
-
A feminine figure defined not by beauty alone, but by principle
As a pendant, she becomes less currency and more keepsake — a talisman of independence, courage, and continuity.
Each coin is sourced from historic French currency once used in everyday circulation before France adopted the Euro. The ten centimes is valued for its balanced size, making it ideal to wear alone or layer with other necklaces for a considered, understated look.
The genuine brass coin is hand prepared and fitted with a gold filled ring bail, soldered using 9ct gold for strength and longevity. The pendant is paired with your choice of chain — gold vermeil, gold filled, or solid 9ct gold — made to your preferred length. Our photographs show the piece styled with a gold vermeil chain.
Each coin carries its own subtle variations from years of circulation, making every necklace quietly unique.
Your necklace arrives gift-ready with a care kit and pouch.
