Silver Fingerprints

For Keeps  is a creative jewellery design company specialising in bespoke jewellery unobtainable through normal retail channels.

Unique pieces of art or ‘keeps’ are designed and crafted to incorporate the fingerprint of a child or loved one in silver, forever.

Working closely with the client, an impression of a finger print is taken in special clay and the piece is then crafted especially for the client in 99.9% fine silver. Space permitting, a name can be engraved on the front and date of birth on the reverse, if desired. Swarovski® crystal beads can also be attached to compliment your charm bracelet.

The delicate silver shapes make original gifts for any special occasion or just a lovely, thoughtful gift with special meaning for years to come.


Slowly, silently, now the moon
Walks the night in her silver shoon;
This way, and that, she peers, and sees

Silver fruit upon silver trees;
Couched in his kennel, like a log,

With paws of silver sleeps the dog;
From their shadowy coat the white breasts peep

Of doves in a silver-feathered sleep;
A harvest mouse goes scampering by,

With silver claws, and silver eye;
And moveless fish in the water gleam,

By silver reeds in a silver stream.

~ Walter de la Mare   
If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructable that it would last throughout life....for keeps.
