Lasting Imprints – Custom Bronze Keepsake Pendants

Capture a precious moment and keep your loved one close with a handmade Lasting Imprints bronze pendant.

Each pendant is created from your unique print and carefully handcrafted using the traditional lost-wax casting process. Your fingerprint, paw print, or nose print is transformed into a meaningful keepsake designed to preserve a special memory.

Available with or without a chain.

Don't Have a Print?

If you don't have a physical print available, I can also work from other options to create your custom pendant.

For fingerprint jewellery, I can work from:
• A fingerprint taken in ink
• A clear fingerprint photograph
• An existing fingerprint image or keepsake

For pet memorial jewellery, I can work from:
• A paw print taken in ink
• A dog nose print taken in ink
• A clear photo showing your dog's nose print
• An existing photo with enough detail to recreate the print

This is a beautiful option if your beloved pup has passed away and you no longer have the opportunity to capture a paw print or nose print. Using the same careful handcrafted process, I can transform a meaningful print or image into a lasting memorial keepsake.

If you are unsure whether your photo or print will work, please send me a message before ordering. I am always happy to take a look and let you know what may be possible.

How It Works

★ Place Your Order – Choose your pendant style and whether you would like to include a chain.

★ Receive Your Kit – You will receive a putty and polymer clay impression kit with step-by-step instructions.

★ Create Your Print – Follow the included guide to capture your fingerprint, paw print, or nose print.

★ Return Your Print –
Swedish customers: Use the included pre-paid return label.
International customers: Return shipping to Sweden is at your own cost.

★ Your Custom Pendant Is Created – Your print is carefully transferred into a wax model before being cast in bronze using the lost-wax casting technique.

Each pendant is individually finished, polished, and checked by hand.

Production time is approximately 4–6 weeks from the date I receive your completed prints or kit.

Please note that production times may be longer during busy periods such as Christmas, Swedish summer holidays, and public holidays.

Pendant Sizes

Medium: Approximately 1–1.2 cm in diameter

Small: Under 1 cm in diameter

Small pendants are ideal for smaller pets or smaller prints. I will always try to preserve as much detail as possible while keeping the proportions of the original print.

Bronze Care

Bronze naturally changes over time and may develop a darker patina or tarnish.

This is a normal characteristic of bronze and does not mean there is anything wrong with your jewellery.

Bronze will not permanently lose its colour. If your pendant changes over time, it can easily be polished using the polishing cloth included with your order to bring back its original shine.

The natural changes in bronze are part of what makes each piece unique and personal.

• Adult Craft Kit (14+): All direct impressions (human fingerprints, pet paw prints, and dog nose prints) using the provided silicone putty or FIMO polymer clay must be strictly conducted or supervised by an adult.

• Direct Pet Impressions: Ensure the pet's nose/paw is clean and dry before applying softened FIMO clay or mixed silicone putty. Gently press to capture the texture and remove immediately. Never block both nostrils or obstruct pet breathing. Wipe pet noses/paws clean with a damp cloth immediately after taking the print.
