Transforming pets’ fur, ashes and feathers into handmade keepsakes, the founder and his wife established Fur & Forever after struggling to find the combination of quality, sensitivity and reassurance he wanted when looking for pet memorial jewellery himself.

The pet memorial jewellery shop crafts personalised, long-lasting keepsakes like rings and pendants using customer-provided pet fur, hair, feathers, or ashes.

In their approach to packaging their orders, the business describes itself as eco-friendly rather than eco-conscious.

These include printed materials made from plantable wild-flower paper, seed-embedded protective packaging, recycled-cardboard jewellery and postage boxes, including thank-you cards made using offcuts from cotton garment factories.

The business continues to garner positive reviews on social media.

Fur & Forever is a Brighton-based specialist pet memorial jewellery brand operated by South Downs Designs Limited. It creates handmade rings, necklaces and keepsakes incorporating customers’ pet fur, hair, feathers, ashes and other sentimental inclusions.
