I designed The Mermaid's Coin for every woman who has been thrown about by life and kept going anyway. This 2cm solid disc - available in solid gold, gold vermeil, and sterling silver - is both a piece of jewellery and a piece of mythology. The front bears a bold seashell motif, proud and unapologetic, while the back is scattered with tiny shells pressed softly into the metal, like treasures washed in by the tide. Around the edge, I've had inscribed the Latin words Fluctuat nec mergitur - she is tossed by the waves, but she does not sink. Think of it as your talisman. Your currency. The kind o

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as DAINTY LONDON LTD, number 11741988. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
