Mariarita and Matteo have a two-year-old daughter named Febe. They did a lot of research to find the right name for her and finally chose this original name that comes from Greek and means “bright”. When they decided to get married, they devoted the same attention to the rings. And they came looking for me because I created two wedding rings with a digital fingerprint. Is that an impossible feat?

Mariarita and Matteo wanted Febe to participate fully in their wedding. For this reason They decided to have their wedding rings made with their baby’s digital fingerprint, They dove into the web in search of one artisan jewelry that they could fulfill their desire and that's where they found me.
I accepted the challenge with enthusiasm, but we immediately realized that create wedding rings in gold With Febe’s footprint it wouldn’t have been easy, because her fingerprints were really small and the imprint was not very pronounced.
Mariarita and Febe spent an entire afternoon playing with the colors with their fingers, filling red felt-tip pens with them. Then I selected the most distinct print, processed it on the computer, and enlarged it three times so that the lines were clearly legible. At that point, I hand-painted a part of the imprint onto each ring.

The result are two faiths with a footprint faithfully inspired by that of Febe, which we could define as a bit artistic.. The effect is slightly rough, as Mariarita and Matteo wanted, and the satisfaction was immense. How could it not be after creating two rings so full of meaning and love!
If you are looking for an original idea on how to customize your handmade wedding rings, I recommend you to read my e-book.
