MAKE YOUR MEMORY

This petite open raindrop-shaped fingerprint pendant can be made in solid 9ct, 14ct, and 18ct gold, and in the full suite of yellow, white, and rose gold shades. 

We are immensely proud to also offer it in certified ethical 9ct and 18ct fairtrade and fairmined gold and premium, bright white, tarnish-resistant silver.

 

There is plenty of space for a large adult fingerprint, although it would look just as nice with a little fingerprint too.

You can add one single fingerprint to this design.

 Due to its slim lines, it is not possible to add handprints, footprints, paw prints, or hoof prints.

Hand engrave on the reverse with a name or set with a sparkling birthstone or diamond to identify the owner of the print.

Can be worn alone or as shown, with other stacking necklaces in the same style. 
The perfect way to add additional children's fingerprints, or prints belonging to other other special people!

At Sophia Alexander, every petite fingerprint necklace is custom made to order and we carefully shape every impression to ensure a perfect fit.

We have over a decade of experience dealing with bespoke jewellery commissions.

Your design will be discussed with you in detail before we start to work on your piece of jewellery. 

Get in touch at any point.  We're here to help.

PLEASE NOTE

Each piece of fingerprint jewellery takes approximately 8 weeks to create

 once we have received your prints.  

We will liaise with you at each stage of the making process, to keep you updated.

Chains are sold separately - Please see our Chains Collection.

Product Information

Our Engraving Fonts and Styles

Hand Engraving  is a traditional craft and skill dating back to the middle ages, that involves a considerable measure of skill, knowledge and training.

It involves an in depth knowledge of different precious metals, impeccable attention to detail, artistic skill and patience.

Hand engraving is known to be deeper and longer lasting than other methods of engraving jewellery.  The engraving also tends to be sharper and has a more even cut.

The hand engravers we work with have many years of experience and are experts in their field.

We are confident that they are able to engrave most styles of writing onto our keepsakes, including samples of your own handwriting.  

For those customers interested in having samples of handwriting engraved, our hand engravers are able to engrave almost any style of handwriting onto your piece of fingerprint jewellery.

Their specialist knowledge and attention to detail are second to none.

Some examples of handwriting that we have engraved, include signatures; personal messages; writing from the inside of old birthday cards; writing from children’s drawings and writing from the backs of old photographs. 

Writing can be from a child or adult, but it is important that it is legible.

The handwriting sample you send will be replicated on your keepsake. 

We are unfortunately unable to improve your handwriting!

There is no need to send us your original, sentimental writing samples.

If you have a scanner, you can scan and email us a copy of the handwriting, or, you can send us a good photocopy.

Our Gemstones

We are able to set beautiful precious birthstones, coloured gemstones or diamonds into most of our fingerprint jewellery.

We provide the option to add a single birthstone or diamond as standard, but please get in touch if you would like to add additional precious stones.

The exact position of diamonds and birthstones can be confirmed in writing after you have placed your order, so you do not have to decide straight away.

Every custom fingerprint keepsake is individually made by hand and is completely unique.

Even if you order multiple copies of the same piece of jewellery, there will be slight differences.

The finished piece will completely depend on the fingerprint taken by you.

Fingerprints vary hugely between individuals, so every keepsake is naturally one of a kind.

We welcome any questions you might have.

Our fingerprint jewellery is made to accommodate real, unique fingerprints of different shapes and sizes.

Fingerprint quality varies hugely between different people due to many factors, including age, health and condition the hands.

Some people naturally have less defined fingerprints than others. This can simply be hereditary.  

All of these things will alter the look of the fingerprint keepsake you receive.


INFANTS  We do not recommend fingerprinting infants below the age of  18 months, as before this, we find that their fingerprints have not fully developed.

Instead of a fingerprint with whorls, loops and arches, you will see a lovely little dimple, but no lines or detail.

Some infants have amazing fingerprints at a much younger age, whereas with some, their print is still not wonderfully clear by two years old or more.

If, when you submit your fingerprints we find that this is the case, we can simply try again at a later date for no additional charge. 

Some customers are happy to go ahead with a tiny dimple impression.  We are completely happy to proceed if this is the case.

OLDER PEOPLE    In elderly people and where there has been a lot of wear and tear on the hands, fingerprint ridges can become less prominent.  This can make the prints look less detailed and in some cases, a little blurred.

Many adults also have wrinkles and scars over their finger tips which can appear as missing sections in the ink print, but they are still very much part of the individual fingerprint.

PLEASE NOTE :  If we do not feel that the fingerprint submitted is suitable, we will inform you immediately.

At Sophia Alexander, we understand that losing a loved one can be the most impossibly difficult and emotional time.

We also know that deciding how you will remember a lost loved one is an incredibly personal decision.

At Sophia Alexander, we able to incorporate your loved ones ashes into many of our custom necklaces and charms.

All custom gold and silver fingerprint and impression jewellery is handmade and personalised for each individual client.

We provide you with approximate product colours, dimensions and weights. However, variations in size and the surface appearance of silver and gold may occur, and should be expected.

Keepsakes are made to accommodate fingerprints, handprints, footprints, paw prints and hoof prints of different shapes and sizes.

Prints taken may vary in quality and clarity. This can simply be due to age, health, condition or hereditary factors.

Names, words and messages are sized according to different fonts and lengths.

Gemstones, diamonds, semi-precious stones and pearls may also vary in colour, size and shape.

These things will all alter the look of your completed piece of jewellery or personalised gift.

If we do not feel that the prints submitted are suitable, we will inform you immediately.

This all means that the fingerprint, handprint, footprint, paw print or hoof print jewellery you purchase will inevitably vary slightly from the photographed images seen on our website, www.sophia-alexander.com, on social media pages and in other locations.
