If you thought keepsakes were limited to photos, baby footprints, and locks of hair, think again! The world of sentimental jewellery has expanded, and one of the most unique and meaningful trends on the rise is breast milk jewellery. In Aberdeenshire and across the UK, more and more mums are choosing to preserve this special bond in a stunning and wearable form. Of course, it’s not for everyone—some people squirm at the thought—but hey, so is blue cheese, and plenty of people love that!
Why Do People Choose Breast Milk Jewellery?
Breastfeeding is an incredible journey—a mixture of joy, sacrifice, and endless cuddles. Whether you’ve breastfed for a few weeks or a few years, it represents a deeply personal experience that deserves to be cherished. Breast milk jewellery allows mothers to commemorate this chapter in a beautiful, lasting way.
Some mums choose to have a piece made to celebrate their breastfeeding journey, while others see it as a way to honour the hard work and dedication that comes with nursing a child. It can also serve as a keepsake for those who have struggled with feeding, had premature babies, or experienced loss, making it an incredibly powerful and personal item.
And with Mother’s Day just around the corner on 30th March, what could be more heartfelt than gifting a mum a unique piece of jewellery crafted from her own liquid gold? It’s like saying, “Mum, you are a superhero, and here’s proof of your magic in wearable form.”
The Process: Turning Liquid Gold into a Gemstone
You may be wondering—how exactly does breast milk get transformed into jewellery? It’s a fascinating process that blends science with artistry!
-
Collection – Order a Memorial Inclusion Kit to make sending your breast milk easy and mess-free. Only a small amount is needed—around 5-10ml. And yes, if you’ve been stockpiling frozen breast milk like a dragon hoarding gold, that can be used too!
-
Preservation – The breast milk is carefully treated with a preservation solution to prevent spoilage and maintain its integrity.
-
Drying & Powdering – Once preserved, the milk is dehydrated and ground into a fine powder.
-
Resin Infusion – The powder is then mixed with resin, creating a smooth, solid material that resembles a pearl or opal.
-
Jewellery Setting – The resin-infused breast milk is shaped and set into your chosen piece, whether it’s a ring, pendant, bracelet, or earrings.
The result? A stunning, one-of-a-kind jewellery piece that captures your journey and love in a way no other keepsake can.
