Memorial jewellery for funeral directors
When a family asks about memorial jewellery, they are looking for a way to hold on to a connection. Gemz By Emz helps funeral directors and funeral homes across the UK introduce personalised jewellery with care, clear guidance and a direct relationship with the person preparing the engraving.
Founded by Emma Thomson in 2011, Gemz By Emz combines professional photography and photo-editing experience with careful engraving. Based in Essex and welcoming partnership enquiries from across the UK, Emma can help you explore a referral arrangement that suits your funeral business and the families you support.
A collection with personal meaning
Offer families a choice of designs and personalisation, rather than a single way to remember. Available options and materials are explained on each product page.

Explore photo jewellery →A loved one’s own fingerprint creates a deeply individual keepsake. Clear digital files, scans and photographs of existing prints can be assessed before an order is placed.
Explore fingerprint jewellery →A signature, a familiar sign-off or a message from a treasured card can be engraved in the original handwriting. A personal way to keep their words close.
Explore handwriting jewellery →Selected necklaces and bracelets have a discreet compartment designed to hold a small amount of ashes. These are self-fill urn designs; ashes are held inside the piece rather than incorporated into the engraving.

Care behind every engraving
A photograph, a print or a few handwritten words can mean everything. Emma helps families understand what is possible and prepares their image with the care it deserves.

Older, faded or damaged photographs can often be assessed and improved. A free image suitability check gives families honest guidance before they choose their jewellery.
Meet Emma →Funeral home partnerships
Share your business name, location and the type of support you would like to offer. Independent funeral directors and teams with several branches are welcome to enquire.
Discuss the collection, referral commission and how you would like to introduce the service to families. Emma will confirm the practical details and any agreed terms directly with you before you begin.
Families can explore the designs and ask for an image check before ordering. Where a fingerprint is needed, arrange the collection of the print with the family’s permission and follow your own professional procedures.
Emma prepares the supplied image for engraving. Orders include a complimentary gift box, free UK tracked delivery and a one-year warranty. Standard turnaround is three working days before dispatch; delivery time is additional. Confirm timing for urgent or unusual requests before promising a date to a family.
Experience since 2011, personal contact with Emma and specialist image preparation give your team a clear point of support. Families can choose photo jewellery, fingerprint necklaces, handwriting keepsakes and ashes jewellery in styles that feel right for them.
Most engraved pendants and charms are surgical steel, with sterling silver chain options on selected designs. Product pages explain the specific materials, dimensions and personalisation choices, so families can make an informed decision.

Your questions, answered
Yes. Emma welcomes enquiries from funeral directors and funeral homes across the UK. Gemz By Emz is based in Essex, and you can discuss your location, branches and preferred referral process directly with her.
Referral commission can be discussed as part of your partnership enquiry. Emma will confirm the rate, qualifying orders, tracking and payment arrangements with you before the partnership starts.
A clear existing print may be suitable. Send the original digital image or a clear scan or photograph for assessment. Not every print has enough detail, so please request a suitability check before making a promise to a family.
No. Photo, handwriting and fingerprint jewellery use images supplied for engraving. Only the urn designs are intended to hold ashes, and these are self-filled. Check each product’s filling instructions and available kit options.
Emma’s photography and editing experience can help with many older images. Restoration possibilities depend on the original photograph. Use the free image check for an honest assessment before ordering.
Email or call Emma with your funeral home’s name, location, website and contact details. You can discuss the range and practical arrangements without committing to a partnership at the enquiry stage.
