People Wear Thumbprint Jewelry at Funerals to:

Be Comforted

Feeling the lines and grooves of a Loved One’s fingerprint engraved on a piece of Jewelry offers unmatched comfort to those who are grieving. While it can’t replace the Loved One, Fingerprint Jewelry can offer a sense of peace during one of life’s most difficult times.

Feel Close to Their Loved One

After someone dies, there’s nothing many people want more than to hold their Loved One close again. Fingerprint Jewelry allows for that precious, tangible connection which gives grieving family members a chance to hold tight to the person they love, even as they’re laying them to rest.

Funerals are a time for finding closure and saying goodbye to someone who meant so much. Family members of the deceased may choose to wear Thumbprint Jewelry to help them through this process. Many will hold onto their Memorial Jewelry as a way to remind themselves that their Loved One may be physically gone, but their spirit is never far from their heart.
