Why Children’s Name Necklaces Make Meaningful Keepsake Jewellery

Our Personalised Handprint or Footprint Heart Charm Necklace, is the perfect gift for a new parent or grandparent. Choose from sterling silver or yellow painted gold, add the name of your child or grandchild, and you can then upload an image or send us an impression of their hand or footprint. A truly special keepsake.

Personalised jewellery isn’t just beautiful, it tells a story. A children’s name necklace is a lasting keepsake that can be passed down through generations, holding memories that never fade.

Fingerprint Jewellery: A Truly Unique Impression

While a name necklace is a beautiful way to celebrate family, fingerprint jewellery takes personalisation one step further. Every fingerprint is completely unique, which makes it one of the most meaningful ways to capture a memory of your child. By engraving your little one’s fingerprint onto a pendant or charm, you’re creating a piece of jewellery that truly cannot be replicated.

Fingerprint necklaces are especially popular with parents who want to keep a part of their child with them at all times, or as heartfelt gifts for grandparents. The engraving process is simple, fingerprints can be taken at home using a special kit or even a smartphone scan, before being carefully imprinted into silver, gold vermeil or solid gold.

Parent and Child Fingerprint Pair Necklace

A fingerprint pendant pairs beautifully with a children’s name necklace, allowing you to combine both a name and a unique print on one piece. For larger families, multiple fingerprints can be engraved on the same pendant or across several charms, creating a necklace that tells the story of your loved ones.

Our Tiny Fingerprint Charm Necklace allows you to add up to 5 charms to the necklace, perfect if you want both a parent and child fingerprint to this piece. You can even add the whole family for something truly special. Available in both Sterling Silver and Yellow Gold Plated.

Fingerprint jewellery isn’t just a keepsake for today – it’s a lasting heirloom. Whether it’s marking the tiny details of babyhood or a way of keeping memories alive as children grow, these pieces hold deep emotional value that will only become more precious over time.

Footprint & Handprint Jewellery: Tiny Prints to Treasure Forever

Few things are more precious than the tiny hands and feet of a child, and footprint and handprint jewellery is a beautiful way to capture those fleeting moments forever. By taking an impression of your baby’s hands or feet, you can transform those early memories into a timeless piece of jewellery that parents and grandparents will treasure for a lifetime.

Whether engraved onto a delicate pendant, a charm, or a bracelet, these miniature prints celebrate milestones such as a first birthday, christening, or even those unforgettable early days at home. At Button and Bean, we make the process simple: prints can be taken at home using ink strips or the pencil and selloptape kits, scans, or even photos, before being carefully engraved onto sterling silver, gold vermeil, or solid gold.

Personalised 9ct Gold Oval Charm Footprint Necklace

For parents, a handprint or footprint necklace is a way to carry a little part of their child close to their heart every day. For grandparents, it’s a heartfelt keepsake that symbolises the bond with a grandchild. These pieces also pair beautifully with children’s name necklaces, allowing you to combine a name with the unique details of a tiny hand or foot.

Footprint and handprint jewellery isn’t just a gift, it’s a story captured in silver and gold. As children grow, these keepsakes become even more meaningful, a reminder of just how small they once were.
