Colour advice for breast milk
Picking the perfect finish for your piece can be confusing.
As a general rule, if you've seen a stone design that you like in one setting, you will love it in your favourite setting also.
All our pictures are of clients' own rings, we are happy to help with pictures if you are unsure, but due to the myriad of designs and colour options, we don't have pictures of everything I'm afraid.
99% of our breastmilk orders want the major colour to be their milk. However, if you would like your milk lightened, we can add mica, which will give it a more white finish.
You can also add a different finish, that will not affect the colour, but will add a shine, sparkle, or flash of colour.
As a finishing touch, a pop of colour to symbolise a birthstone, or the gender of your child is a beautiful personal touch.
Breastmilk with Pearl shimmer
Our most popular addition for milk. Pearl shimmer wont change the colour of your milk, but will add a subtle touch of depth and shine to your piece.
Works well with a pop of colour
Natural Milk
Pure milk is a popular choice for those wanting a simple, classic, timeless look.
Works well with pop oof colour
Opal Leaf
A must for those looking for an opal/moonstone effect for their breastmilk jewellery. The iridescent effect will give flashes of differing colours as the light moves.
Opal leaf is added with a pop of colour automatically, but is graduated rather than being an all over effect.
Diamond leaf
A new addition to our colour selection, that has proven incredibly popular. Diamond leaf will add flashes of silver and white, it also adds a depth to your stone.
Not recommended to be combined with a pop of colour
Iridescent sparkle
If you'd like your stone to twinkle rather than flash, iridescent sparkle is for you. A subtle effect that gives little twinkles of colour as the light changes.
Works well with a pop of colour.
pink hue
A subtle addition to your milk. Whether for a baby girl or just because you like pink, pink hue, is a beautiful addition.
The very light pink will only show when the light catches your stone at a certain angle, if not it will show your natural milk colour.
Works very well with a pop of colour
Blue hue
A subtle addition to your milk. Whether for a baby boy or just because you like blue, blue hue, is a beautiful addition.
The very light blue will only show when the light catches your stone at a certain angle, if not it will show your natural milk colour.
Works very well with a pop of colour
platinum shards
A holographic effect, slightly bolder than opal & diamond leaf. A striking, bold addition, that will flash silver with additional colours.
Breastmilk with Hair
A popular combination for either your baby's first curl or to combine milk from your baby & a lock of hair from older children.
If the visibility of the hair is important, a subtle background is advised, such as pearl shimmer or natural.
Breastmilk with umbilical cord
An increasingly popular option, we will use flecks of your umbilical cord layered on top of your milk if you'd like it visible, or mixed with your milk if you'd prefer it hidden.
Works best with subtle additions like pearl shimmer or natural milk.
