MORE THAN JEWELLERY
Our memorial jewellery is truly unique, with each piece carefully handmade to capture your most precious memories.
Our collections of Ashes Jewellery, Fingerprint Jewellery and Handprint Jewellery are lovingly hand crafted in our Shropshire studio in the UK, by our independant goldsmith, Melanie. Whether holding a loved one’s cremation ashes, capturing the unique detail of a fingerprint, or preserving a baby’s delicate handprint or footprint - or a cherished pet’s pawprint - our beautiful memorial jewellery is individually made to order especially for you.
With hundreds of memorial and keepsake designs that you won't find anywhere else, including fingerprint, handprint and ashes charms, necklaces, bracelets, rings, keyrings and cufflinks, there really is something for everyone. Whats more, with 14 years of dedicated memorial and keepsake jewellery experience, you can rest assured that your precious memories are in safe hands, with each bespoke piece receiving the care and attention it deserves.

Our new carefully curated collection of Stainless Steel fingerprint, handprint and pawprint jewellery is designed to be durable and affordable, perfect for thoughtful gifting and everyday wear.
PROVIDING ASHES
We only require a small pinch of cremation ashes to create your memorial jewellery.
After you place your order, we will send a simple collection kit containing a wooden spoon and a sealable bag, so you can gather the ashes easily at home. We ask for approximately one teaspoon of ashes per piece of ashes jewellery ordered, although only a small amount is used in the making of each item. Any unused ashes are returned to you with your finished jewellery.
Each piece of cremation ashes jewellery is made individually, with the greatest of care. To ensure the integrity of each piece, ashes are handled separately throughout the making process.
PROVIDING PRINTS
ORDER A PRINT KIT
At Hold Upon Heart, we’re experts at creating beautiful jewellery from fingerprints, handprints, footprints and pawprints, but you might be wondering how you actually capture your prints.
The good news is that we can work with prints you already have, or we can send you a simple, easy-to-use print kit so you can take them at home. If you’re short on time, we can also work with photos of all types of print - as long as you can zoom in and see detail, we can use it.

NEW MEMORIAL JEWELLERY DESIGNS
There is something special about coming up with new designs, its probably my favourite part of what I do. Each piece begins at the bench here in our Shropshire workshop, shaped slowly by hand, with care in every detail.
