Each silhouette charm begins with a hand-drawn silhouette created from your child’s profile. Once approved, the design is engraved and finished by hand in solid gold or sterling silver.This process is slow by nature and handled with care at every step — from illustration to engraving to final quality check — resulting in a piece designed to be kept for years. This listing includes:
  • One silhouette charm in your chosen size and either 14k yellow, rose, or white gold metal.
  • A custom hand-drawn silhouette created for your piece
  • A high-resolution digital silhouette file for personal use

Turnaround and how it works

Charms are engraved in small batches by our jeweler, the way heirloom pieces should be. Your order joins the current batch, and your finished charm arrives within 10 to 12 weeks.

If your order includes a new silhouette, our artist begins within days, and your digital proof arrives for approval first, usually within 10 days. Nothing moves forward until you love it. Once the batch closes, engraving begins, and you will hear from us at every step: when your order is in, when your proof is ready, when your charm is in the jeweler’s hands, and when it is on its way home to you.

Changed your mind? Your charm refunds in full anytime before your batch enters production. If your order included a new silhouette and our artist has already drawn it, the $68 silhouette portion is complete and non-refundable, and the artwork is yours to keep, the high-resolution file and all. The charm itself still refunds in full. Once engraving begins on your one-of-a-kind piece, the order can no longer be canceled.

A great silhouette starts with a great photograph. The details that make your child recognizable — the slope of their nose, the shape of their lips, the way their hair falls — all come from the quality of your profile shot.

Follow these tips and you’ll give us the best possible foundation for your keepsake.

True side profile (90°)

Stand directly to the side — not at a three-quarter angle. Try aiming for the ear when snapping the photo. We need to see one full eye, the nose, lips, and chin.

Eye-level with the camera

Crouch down to your child’s level. Shooting from above or below distorts the proportions and doesn’t capture their true profile.

Show nose, lips, and neckline

Make sure hair, clothing, or accessories aren’t covering the nose, lips, or chin. These details are what make your silhouette uniquely recognizable.

Good natural lighting

Stand near a window or go outside. Avoid harsh overhead lighting or flash — soft, even light gives us the clearest details to work with.

Simple, uncluttered background

A plain wall or sky works perfectly. Busy backgrounds make it harder to see the edges of the profile clearly.
