Crown Heart Necklace

The Crown Heart Necklace

This isn't just a piece of jewellery, it's a way to keep someone close. A tiny trace of them, held within the design itself, so you're never really without them. Made with real care, it becomes something you can touch, hold, and carry with you, not just a memory, but something tangible.

What We Can Preserve For You

We work with all kinds of precious things, and you're never limited to just one:

• Ashes: a loved one's, a person's or a pet's, all handled with the same care
• Hair: your baby's first curl, or a lock from someone you miss
• Fur: your best friend's fur, mane or tail hair
• Breastmilk: just a few ml, or up to half an ounce, of your liquid gold
• Blood: we'll send a kit so you can take and dry a drop (or more, if you'd like)
• Umbilical cord: just a tiny snip, about the size of an orange seed
• Placenta: a single capsule is all we need, if you've had yours encapsulated
• Birthstone: vibrant synthetic opal as standard, or your own genuine stone on request, included free with this piece

Want to combine a few? Blood with a lock of hair, or breastmilk with a snip of umbilical cord, that's the kind of thing we do all the time. Tell us your story and we'll help you find a way to hold it.

How to Make It Yours

1. Choose your size This necklace comes with two size options 10mm and 18mm.

2. Choose what goes inside, and how Pick one element or a few together. Once you order, we'll post out a Sending Kit with everything you need plus clear instructions for sending each piece to us safely.

3. Pick your colour and sparkle Choose one of our resin sparkle mixes (our beach scene is a favourite) or go clear and tell us what you're picturing. Fancy a touch of gold or silver leaf to catch the light? No extra charge. Prefer no sparkle at all, just a flat colour? That's fine too. We can even tuck in little extras on request: forget me nots, a tiny Boobie Award for your breastfeeding milestones, whatever feels right.

4. Add your engraving Engraving is done in Arial as standard, but just let us know in the comments before adding to basket if you'd prefer Times New Roman, Vivaldi, Amazone BT, or Silver South Serif & Script. Click each to see it "in action" with your own words. We can work with any font, get in touch to discuss. Arial, Times New Roman and Silver South Serif suit longer messages best, while Vivaldi, Amazone BT and Silver South Script work well for shorter messages and larger pieces.

We know these aren't just materials, they're pieces of someone you love, and we treat them that way, every step of the process. Anything we don't use gets carefully tracked and sent back to you with your finished ring (breastmilk is the one exception, as we keep a small archive of that for years to come).
