Fingerprint Jewellery – Creating a Lasting Memory!


Fingerprints are impressions on our hand. Fingerprint Jewellery helps us to create a lasting memory by keeping them safe. As we know all the fingerprints are unique and individual to each person. The impressions for the jewellery can be of any person either a child or an adult. The fingerprints of babies and young children are not as developed; therefore these impressions will show the shape and size of the finger, plus the little creases in the joint. Most of companies in the market are using sterling silver for the manufacturing of this fingerprint jewellery instead of pure silver which is used by a very few companies. The quality of the jewellery completely depends on the type of silver used for the manufacturing of the jewellery. The basic differences between the pure silver and sterling silver are as follows:
  • First of all, the most and important difference between the two is the amount of silver in them. Pure Silver contains 99.9 % of silver whereas Sterling Silver contains 92.5 % of silver.
  • Pure Silver has no alloys whereas sterling silver has alloys.
  • Pure silver is softer than the Sterling silver.
No matter how creative a craftsman is while making the finger print jewellery, his work will not be recognized until or unless the jewellery does not seem to good i.e., it should have a shining. The finishing processes that are done to make the Fingerprint Jewellery look good are as follows:
  • The first method is to apply Patina. Applying patina will help to accent the fingerprints and it makes the texture come alive.
  • The next step is tumbling and polishing of the jewellery that is made. This will make the jewellery to shine and look beautiful.
Most of the people have also started it doing as a hobby to learn something new and creative. There are various books available in the market which helps the people to learn this art. Many online courses are also there and most importantly a lot of academies are also there in the market to give a wide range of knowledge to the people.
Description:
Finger print jewellery is a fine form of art and many companies have started doing the business of making fine jewellery but before choosing any companies, the type of silver and much other factors such as finishing processes should also be checked.
