Fingerprint Jewellery for Memorial Keepsakes

When someone we love passes away, we often look for ways to keep their memory close. One of the most powerful ways to do this is through memorial jewellery. At Meraki Studio, I specialise in creating fingerprint jewellery that preserves the unique lines and ridges of your loved one’s touch forever in sterling silver or 9ct gold.

Why Choose Fingerprint Jewellery for Memorials?

Every fingerprint tells a story. The fine ridges, scars, and patterns are as unique as the person themselves. By capturing these details in jewellery, you create a keepsake that is deeply personal - a way of carrying your loved one with you always.

Fingerprint memorial jewellery is often chosen as:

• A pendant to keep close to your heart
• A ring to wear daily as a reminder of connection
• A charm that can be passed down through generations

The Lost Wax Casting Technique

Each piece is made using the traditional lost wax casting technique. This method allows me to transform a wax impression of your loved one’s fingerprint into solid metal, preserving even the tiniest details.

It is a slow, careful process, but the result is worth it: a piece of jewellery that captures your loved one’s touch forever.

Memorial Jewellery as a Gift

Memorial jewellery is not only something you might commission for yourself. It also makes a deeply thoughtful gift for someone grieving. As we approach Christmas, a time that can be difficult for those missing loved ones, a fingerprint keepsake can provide comfort and closeness.

If ordering a finished piece isn’t possible in time, our wax kits are also a meaningful gift. They allow the recipient to take a print themselves (if their loved one is still with them) or to send in an existing print to be cast in the future.

Why 9ct Gold and Sterling Silver?

Both metals are chosen for their durability and timelessness. Sterling silver has a soft, gentle beauty, while 9ct gold offers the strength to preserve fine fingerprint details for years to come.

Grief never truly leaves us, but having a piece of jewellery that holds your loved one’s fingerprint can bring comfort, connection, and memory into daily life. With Christmas approaching, a memorial keepsake or wax kit can be a gift of love and remembrance that means more than words.
