Silver Fingerprint Jewellery, Fleet, Hampshire

Silver fingerprint jewellery is a relatively new style of jewellery. Essentially a person's fingerprint impression is taken and used to decorate a beautiful, very personal piece of silver jewellery. 


Any person of any age can have their fingerprint used to make a piece of fingerprint jewellery, but with small babies it is best to wait until they are at least 12 months old. By then a good, clear, defined fingerprint impression has developed. Children under 12 months old can have their fingerprint used and the jewellery is a wonderful reminder of their first few months and how tiny their fingers were! The older a person is the more defined the fingerprint is and greater detail shows up in the finished jewellery.

The fingerprint can then be used to make virtually any item of jewellery. Handmade in pure solid silver Equinox's Silvertips range of fingerprint jewellery has something for everyone- cufflinks, dog tags and key rings for proud dads and grandads. As well as charms, bracelets, bangles and necklaces for mums and grandmas everywhere. Names can be hand carved next to the fingerprint and a short message, date or age can be added by hand to the reverse of the jewellery.


A wide range of silver fingerprint jewellery can be seen at www.silvertips.co.uk. All Silvertips jewellery is handmade, in our workshop in Fleet, Hampshire and normally takes 4-5 weeks to be ready.
