Beatrice Matiash
Designer Beatrice Matiash is motivated by unconventional sources of inspiration. "I am in part a collector," she said. "Everywhere I go, I feel drawn to the color combination on anything from a flyer to a tea set, and to the history of things like a twig or a penny. I collect all these things that influence my jewelry designs." She fondly recalls collecting pennies as a child and immediately checking the year so she could dream up a story about the owner who dropped it. See all creations.

Molly

This is absolutely ludicrous. Why would ANYONE buy one penny on a chain for almost a hundred dollars?!? Colossal waste of money! You could make one for under 4 dollars.

It's only a penny; why on earth should it cost so much?
