Imprint jewelry: turn a real imprint into a jewel

Imprint jewelry is a piece created from the real imprint of a loved one — an animal's paw or nose, a partner's finger, a baby's foot or hand, or the memory of someone who has passed. At UNION, every imprint jewel is hand-cast in 925 silver or gold finish, from the imprint you make yourself at home. The result: a one-of-a-kind piece that faithfully reproduces every line and detail.

What is imprint jewelry?

Imprint jewelry is personalized jewelry made from a real physical imprint, not just an engraving or a photo. Where engraved jewelry reproduces a surface pattern, imprint jewelry captures the material itself: the relief, the lines, the exact texture of the paw, finger or foot it comes from. That's what makes each piece truly unique.

The process relies on an ancient craft, lost-wax casting. You make the imprint in a soft mold, we cast it in precious metal, and the imprint becomes a jewel you'll wear every day.

Who is it for? Imprint jewelry uses

Imprint jewelry is for anyone who wants to materialize a strong bond with a loved one, living or gone:

• Pet imprint: your dog's (or cat's) paw or nose, to keep your companion close every day.
• Couple imprint: your loved one's fingerprint, for an engagement, wedding or anniversary.
• Baby imprint: your child's foot or hand, frozen as they are at birth.
• Memory of a loved one: the print of someone who has passed, kept gently close.

How is imprint jewelry made?

1. You receive the imprint kit

After your order, we send a complete kit: a soft mold, skin-safe imprint material, and a clear guide. The kit usually arrives within 3 to 5 days.

2. You take the imprint at home

It takes just a few minutes, at home, stress-free. Paw, finger, foot or hand depending on the jewel. If the result isn't right, the kit lets you start over.

3. We craft your jewel by hand

You send the mold back in the included envelope. In our atelier, the imprint is cast and finished by hand in 925 silver or gold finish, polished and checked individually. About 4 to 5 weeks total from order to delivery.

Ring, necklace or bracelet: which imprint jewel?

• The imprint ring: signet or band, with the imprint on the face. Ideal for everyday wear.
• The imprint necklace: a round, oval or heart medallion, worn close to the heart. The most gifted piece.
• The imprint bracelet: a delicate medallion on a fine chain.

Silver or gold finish?

The silver version is solid 925 silver. The gold version is bronze, coated with a fine layer of real gold for a warm golden tone. Choose based on your style: silver for a clean, contemporary look, gold finish for a warmer, more precious touch.
