Orders
Below are some of our common questions about orders
Locks of Hair: Hair can be any length, around 1-2 toothpicks wide. If the hair is very fine and separates easily you can bind it together with hair spray, gel or Vaseline and then place into the inclusion bag.
Breastmilk: The minimum amount to send is 5ml (approximately a tablespoon)
The milk can be from your old frozen stash or fresh. Please defrost the milk prior to packaging and posting through to us. It does not have to arrive completely fresh as it is not for consumption. As long as there is no visible mould your milk will be perfect for preservation. It can be any age from frozen.
Once we’ve received the milk it then goes through a four-step preservation process and when it is fully preserved it is then added to the resin along with any other inclusions to be turned into your beautiful piece of jewellery.
Ashes: Please place a small amount (around a teaspoon) into the small inclusion bag. The teaspoon included in your pack will hold the perfect amount.
This will be more than enough to make 5-6 pieces of jewellery. Any ashes that are not used in the jewellery making process will be returned to you.
Flowers: Flowers or petals must be dried and pressed.
Teeth: We can use any kind of tooth, from baby, puppy and even horse teeth. The tooth is broken down to put into your jewellery piece, but we do have some designs where the tooth can be kept whole if this is preferred.
Fabric Only a very small strip of fabric is needed, no more than 1"x1". Please don’t send the entire item. Place the small strip into the inclusion bag.
Pregnancy strips and casing.
Pet Fur: Fur can be any length, and from any animal. If it is particularly light and fine it may not be as visible as fur that is much darker and coarser, so please bear this in mind when choosing your colours.
Our usual lead time is 8 to 10 weeks from receiving your inclusions.
This can be extended for custom orders & busy periods.
If you require your piece to be made quicker we do offer a fast track service for £40.00 please get in touch to discuss availability.
A ring sizer will be included in your inclusion pack sent upon ordering.
We don't send out brochures, our collection contains over 300 pieces, by far to many to fit into a brochure. The collection is constantly being updated, any brochure or catalogue would soon be out of date.
If you have any questions please get in touch.
