Bespoke Bridal Jewellery
We create custom bridal jewellery tailored to individual wedding dresses and personal stories. Our process begins with a complimentary consultation where we analyse dress details and preferences to design hairpieces, earrings, and bracelets that enhance the bride's vision. Each piece combines quality materials with artisan craftsmanship, ensuring unique accessories that become cherished heirlooms.
Breastmilk Keepsakes
Transform breastmilk into enduring keepsakes through specialised preservation techniques. We offer pendants, rings, and bracelets that encapsulate this precious material in elegant designs. The process maintains the milk's integrity while creating wearable art that celebrates maternal bonds, with options for personalisation through engraving and gemstone accents.
Fingerprint Jewellery
Capture unique fingerprints in sterling silver or gold to create lasting memorials. This service specialises in converting hand or footprints into bangles, pendants, and rings that preserve intimate connections. The technique ensures precise detail retention, allowing families to carry physical reminders of loved ones in discreet, elegant designs.
Memorial Jewellery
We craft commemorative pieces incorporating cremation ashes or funeral flowers into jewellery. Using silver-coating techniques, we transform petals and ashes into pendants, bracelets, and rings that serve as personal tributes. Each creation balances sensitivity with artistry, offering families tangible connections to lost loved ones through carefully preserved materials.
Personalised Accessories
Our bespoke service extends beyond traditional jewellery to include engraved keyrings, tree decorations, and scarves. Clients can incorporate handwriting, names, or special dates into wearable art through handcrafting techniques. This service caters to individual expression, producing items that mark anniversaries, family milestones, and personal achievements with unique detailing.

Questions
How do I commission bespoke bridal jewellery?
Contact us via email or phone to schedule a consultation. Bring dress details or photos for inspiration. We'll create custom designs matching your gown, offering adjustments until you're completely satisfied with the final piece.
What materials are used in breastmilk keepsakes?
We use medical-grade resin to preserve breastmilk in pendants, rings, and bracelets. The process maintains the milk's natural appearance while ensuring durability. Options include adding gold accents or gemstones for personalised touches.
Can you incorporate old family jewellery into new designs?
Yes, we specialise in repurposing vintage pieces. Bring your existing jewellery to our workshop where we'll discuss transforming elements like brooches or necklaces into modern creations that preserve sentimental value.
What's the process for fingerprint jewellery?
We take impressions using safe, non-toxic materials during a studio visit. The process takes 15-20 minutes. We then craft the piece in sterling silver or gold, completing it within two weeks for rings or three weeks for more complex items.
Do you offer international shipping?
Yes, we ship worldwide using tracked delivery services. Packaging includes protective materials to ensure safe arrival. Customers outside the UK should allow 5-10 working days for standard shipping, with expedited options available.
How are memorial pieces created from funeral flowers?
Send dried petals or complete flowers to our workshop. We use silver-coating techniques to preserve them in jewellery. The process takes 4-6 weeks, with options to incorporate the preserved elements into pendants, bracelets, or framed keepsakes.

My wonderful mum passed away in the Summer of 2020. I wanted a ring with her ashes to cherish. It had to be a piece that was special. I spent several hours flicking through the usual ‘ashes to glass’ catalogues that are given by funeral companies. Researching umpteen memorial jewelry websites... Nothing stood out. My mum was a woman that stood out, and in my heart I felt those offerings just wouldn’t do her justice. When looking on Etsy I found Victoria. Her spinning ringswith ashes were unique, nowhere else had this modern take on memorial jewelry. She was ‘up north&rsquo

Victoria has a warmth that shines through in her handmade pieces. My auntie just received the most beautiful memorial spinner ring with her dad’s (my grandad) ashes incorporated into it. To say it’s stunning is an understatement. Would absolutely recommend Victoria - she’s lovely, talented and just overall amazing. Thank you Victoria from our family here in Forfar xx
