Heart 'Forever Touch' Fingerprint Necklaces

Ethically Sourced, Sustainably Made (more info here)

Engraving materials are sourced from the USA, made from recycled materials. Designed, and engraved in Barossa Valley, Australia.

Other pieces are ethically sourced and made in Thailand. Your jewellery doesn't need to cost the earth. Wear your jewellery with peace of mind that it has been ethically sourced, and is made from 100% recycled silver by fairly paid employees who work in a safe environment. We and our suppliers consistently strive to minimise their carbon footprint.

Our gold-filled pieces are made with a thick layer of real 14k gold pressure-bonded to a core of durable base metal (usually brass). It’s 100x thicker than gold plating or vermeil, making it a long- lasting and affordable alternative to solid gold.

Gold-filled jewellery won’t flake or rub off with normal wear, and with proper care, it can last for many years. It’s also safe for most sensitive skin.

Our gold-filled materials are made in the USA because The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in the US set clear standards for what can legally be called “gold-filled.” For example, the gold layer must make up at least 5% of the item’s total weight, which ensures quality and durability.

Why we love it:
It gives you that rich, warm golden glow without the high price of solid gold, perfect for sentimental keepsakes that are made to be worn and loved daily.

Are your jewellery water and tarnish-proof

Sterling silver naturally tarnishes over time. It’s a characteristic of the material. The good news is that tarnish is easy to clean using a proper silver polishing cloth (impregnated with a tarnish-removal agent). With just a quick wipe, your jewellery will regain its shine. Some people even prefer the gentle patina that develops on sterling silver over time, as it adds a unique, vintage character.

Gold-filled jewellery is tarnish-resistant thanks to its thick layer of real gold. With a gentle wipe or an occasional clean using mild soap and water, your piece will maintain its beautiful shine for years to come.

Is your jewellery hypoallergenic?

Generally, Sterling Silver and Gold-filled is hypoallergenic due to the high silver content. However, some people might still have reactions to Sterling Silver if they have severe metal allergies.
