This round hand and footprint charm features our premium 24ct gold vermeil finish, applied to a substantial 2.5 microns by London-based Royal Warrant holders, creating a luxurious golden keepsake that captures your child's actual handprints, footprints or both, in miniaturised detail. Each piece is handcrafted from solid 925 sterling silver, with our skilled artisans digitally miniaturising the original prints and meticulously recreating every distinctive ridge and pattern. The charm measures approximately 18mm in diameter and includes a robust gold vermeil jump ring for secure attachment to any gold vermeil sterling silver chain.
Perfect as a meaningful memento for births, christenings, special birthdays, or as memorial jewellery for a child no longer in your arms, this personal impression creates a lasting connection you can treasure forever. The specialist handcrafted process may result in subtle marks that add character, making each piece genuinely unique and reflecting the handmade nature of your cherished keepsake that captures those innocent little footprints.
Ordering Process
For our Hand & Footprint Jewellery, we will send you an impression pack containing a special wipe and sensitised paper. This method of capturing hand and footprints was developed for use in maternity hospitals in America and is suitable and safe for babies of all ages.
The hand and footprints appear like magic on the paper, which you then send back to us in a prepaid, letterbox-sized return package! Of course, if you already have a print that you'd like to use, just take a clear copy and email or post it to us.
With some magic of our own, we miniaturise the hand or footprints to fit your chosen item of jewellery and recreate them as though they were imprinted directly into the silver!
Professional Print-Taking
For those who prefer a professional touch, we also offer an appointment service for taking hand and footprints. This service ensures high-quality prints with minimal hassle. Appointments are available at two locations, with different availability times. After placing your order, you will receive an invite to book an appointment for professional hand and footprint-taking. This option is ideal for ensuring precision and clarity, especially for creating cherished keepsakes.
Made From
Each piece is crafted from solid 925 Sterling Silver with a premium 2.5 micron layer of 24ct gold vermeil. The charm is approximately 18mm diameter. The necklace comes complete with a matching gold vermeil 925 sterling silver belcher chain, creating a cohesive and luxurious appearance perfect for everyday wear or special occasions.

Priority Service
Each Morgan & French piece is handcrafted to order with exceptional care. We begin creating your jewellery once we have received everything we need, from your personalisation details to any required materials.
We understand that some customers may wish to receive their order sooner, so we offer the option to bring your piece forward in your maker’s schedule. These choices affect when your jewellery is created, never the skill or attention devoted to it.
Priority 1 – Express Creation
When time matters, your piece is scheduled for immediate bench work with your maker, crafted ahead of their usual making order. This typically brings completion forward by around three to five days, giving you a noticeably earlier finish for special gifts, meaningful moments and occasions where you simply need your jewellery sooner.
This premium service adds a 40% uplift to the base price of your piece (excluding any optional add-ons), so you’re never charged extra for choosing to include additional details or elements. It is available on selected designs each day.
Standard Service – Made in Turn
Your jewellery is handcrafted with the same care and attention, created in the natural rhythm of your maker’s schedule once everything required is in place. The same skill, the same devotion - simply made in turn.
Care Guide
Gold vermeil, gold plated and black rhodium plated pieces have a thin coating of precious metal electroplated onto the surface of solid silver. Vermeil carries a thicker layer of gold than standard plating, so it wears well, but as this is still a surface finish it can wear away over time. Rubbing will of course wear away plated surfaces more quickly.
Some substances in our daily lives can affect plating and cause silver to tarnish prematurely, including soap, water, hairspray, chlorine, perfume, food, latex, perspiration, heat and the natural oils on our hands. You should always remove jewellery before showering or swimming, as metals can react with shampoo, chemicals and chlorine.
Please do not use a silver jeweller's cloth or any polish on plated or vermeil pieces, as these are abrasive and will strip the plating. Wipe gently with a soft, dry, non-treated cloth instead, and store your pieces separately to avoid rubbing against other jewellery.
Never allow leather or cord to get wet. Wet leather and cord stay damp inside and deteriorate from within, which loosens the bond within the clasp and affects the strength and look of the material.
As with all jewellery, straps, links and clasps can be opened, damaged or broken if not treated with care. Please check your jewellery carefully when you receive it and contact us within 7 days if it is delivered faulty or damaged. Your jewellery is fully guaranteed for 6 months against faulty workmanship or materials, although this does not cover accidental damage, misuse or wear and tear.
If you have a problem with the plating within 3 months of purchase we will re-plate your piece free of charge. After this time we are still happy to re-plate for you as a chargeable service, so please get in touch and we will let you know what is involved.
This does not affect your statutory rights.
