The Process

After you have placed your order, an easy to use Impression Kit and detailed instructions will be sent out to you. The kit contains a non-toxic moulding compound (similar to plasticine), and the process only takes a few minutes of your time. There will be enough compound enclosed to take 2 impressions for each fingerprint, extra compound is available free of charge if needed.

For hand and footprint impressions, we will send you an inkless impression kit. This kit is extremely clean and easy to use. These kits are regularly used in maternity units to take the hand and foot impressions of newborn babies.

When you have returned the kit in the pre-paid envelope, we will set to work on your chosen piece.

We take the impression you have made and incorporate the fingerprint, hand or footprint in Pure Silver including a name, nickname, date or even a short message if you so choose.

Our Impression jewellery is created using Precious Metal Clay, a unique material which is made by combining pure silver particles with a clay like organic binder. After a piece of jewellery is created it is then kiln fired, where the organic binder burns away, leaving 99.9 % Pure Silver. All our fingerprint jewellery goes through 12 different stages before it is finished and ready to send out to you.

After your chosen piece is finished, we will send it to you by Special Delivery(insured), Royal Mail Signed For (uninsured), of free 1st Class post (uninsured). Orders normally take around 28 days from receipt of your impressions, longer during busy periods, or 10 -12 working days from receipt of your impressions with our Priority Service.

All fingerprints and impressions are different, unique and individual to each person. The Impression Jewellery examples featured on our website show a cross section of different impressions from very young babies to adults. The fingerprints of babies and young children are not well developed, therefore these impressions will show the shape and size of the finger, plus the little creases in the joint. Many people like to take the impression of the back of a babies finger, this then features all the little creases and the nail imprint. For young babies, you may wish to opt for a hand or foot impression rather than a fingerprint. Please note: fine lines and detail are unlikey to be visible on hand and foot prints due to the miniturisation process.

A Priority Service option is available during the checkout process for orders required within a shorter period of time. The charge for the priority service is £10.00 and your order will be dispatched within 10-12 working days of us receiving your impressions. This service may be withdrawn during busy periods.
