Yoko Devereaux

Old Money - The Jewelry Collection

In these days of soaring gas prices, yelps of cash crunches and real estate depression, the last thing anyone would do is destroy money.

Well, anyone but Yoko Devereaux that is.

Launching for spring/summer 2008, Old Money, is a collection of coins hand cut into works of art Yoko has attached to aged sterling silver necklaces. As Creative Director, Andy Salzer, explains, “It is about taking something that is so relevant in our society and then destroying it. Yet we’re also transforming it into something truly unique.”

Don’t fret though Freedom Fighters, no U.S. coins have been used. The coins collected are from around the world including Canada, Croatia, England, Russia and The Czech Republic.
