Wear a tangible piece of Dutch history with this beautiful silver coin pendant on a chain with Venetian links, also made of silver. This piece of jewelry is not only a brilliant accessory, but also tells a powerful story of loyalty and patriotism.
The pendant is crafted from an original silver 25-cent coin (kwartje) with the likeness of Queen Wilhelmina. The portrait of the monarch has been hand-carved with utmost precision, a craft that symbolized the "Silent Resistance" during World War II. By wearing such jewelry, Dutch people subtly showed their connection to the Royal House and their hope for liberation.
The pendant hangs from a refined silver Venetian link chain. The sleek, square links of this chain form a beautiful contrast with the detailed, round pendant.
