Description
Capture your dog or cat nose print in precious metal for an everlasting heirloom that you can wear always.
These are divine and so personal. The print is subtle and gorgeous.
Process:
These charms are available in sterling silver or 9ct yellow gold.
The first step in making your charm is an impression of your pet’s nose which I obtain via a wax imprint. This is taken by you in your home with your pet using a ‘pet print kit’ which I will send to you.
The wax form is then transformed to metal and made into a charm.
These prices are for a finished free form charm of approximately 12 – 15mm diameter / no more than 3-6g in sterling silver and 12mm / no more than 5g in 9ct yellow gold. No two will be exactly the same, the shape is imperfect and all vary in size a little.
In my experience pet nose charms require more wax than the human fingerprint charms as you have less control, this is why they are generally heavier finished charms and bit more expensive.
If you wish to have an even larger (therefore heavier) charm made this can be discussed when you receive your imprint kit, just give me a call or send me an email. You are completely free to create several wax imprints of varying shapes and sizes, if I think they will go over the weight included in the price I’ll quote you prior to casting in fine metal for how much it will be to upgrade your order. The upgrade can be paid direct upon completion. The same goes for adding a chain, please just let me know in your order notes if that’s something you’d like so I can recommend a proportional size and quote for it.
I also have a couple of options for the rings that will be attached at the top of the charm: small jump rings that can vary in size or a larger fixed V loop. Again this can be discussed prior to completion!
The piece is handmade and comes beautifully packaged.
To be safe, please allow 15 business days from the date I receive your wax imprint for completion of your jewellery + postage. Please mention any special requirements in the notes section of the order or via email.
