Is fingerprint jewellery the best Mother’s Day gift?

Mother’s Day is usually comprised of a nice breakfast in bed, a card, some flowers and a cuddle off the children. However this year we have got an extremely great present for Mother’s Day that we just have to share with you all. If you have a couple of little ones, then you will just love fingerprint jewellery. You may be wondering – what is fingerprint jewellery? Read on to find out more.

What is finger print jewellery?

Finger print jewellery is a style of jewellery that incorporates the finger prints of loved ones. The finger print of the chosen person is taken in a silicon putty mould. This mould is then cast to the metal whilst the metal is hot. There are usually two different methods of taking fingerprints. The first is the aforementioned silicon putty which is the preferred method as this captures the fine detail of the finger as well as the shape and curve of the finger. You can also capture fingerprints using a pencil and transferable paper too.

Who are Hold Upon Heart?

The company is an online store called Hold Upon Heart. Once it arrives, you get a silicon putty kit. Once you’ve collected the prints, simply send the moulds back and wait for the second delivery. There is also an express service available if you have left your gift until the very last minute. The turnaround time can be minimised to five days for an extra fee of £20.

Our review of the Hold Upon Heart fingerprint jewellery

The quality of the Hold Upon Heart necklace that we received is absolutely beautiful. The metal is hallmarked to prove the quality. The actual necklace  has this lovely handmade effect that makes it seem all the more special. Looking at the website, you can also get handprints and footprints shrunk down to fit on the necklaces, charms, key rings and bracelets available. There are a lot of different options for all tastes.

Would we recommend Hold Upon Heart fingerprint jewellery?

From a receiver’s perspective, this is one of the most sentimental and long-lasting Mother’s Day gifts that we can imagine: A piece of jewellery that we will truly treasure for many years to come. We think that children will also enjoy looking at this piece of jewellery when they are older too. They also do men’s cufflinks which are a perfect option for Father’s Day.
