The plated three are the tough ones. Vermeil is the precious one. Neither tarnishes on its own, and none of them turns skin green.
Why no plain silver? Sterling silver, the 925 stamped inside most silver jewelry, tarnishes and scratches on its own. So we use it in one place only: as the solid 925 core of our vermeil, sealed under 18K gold.
The letter size is the total height of the finished name, from the top of the tallest letter to the bottom of the lowest, so capitals and tails like g, y or p are included.
Small is 8 mm (0.3"), Medium 10 mm (0.4"), Large 13 mm (0.5"). Medium is what most people choose. Silk is a tall, airy script, so its three sizes run about 40 percent larger. The line under the preview shows the exact size of the name you typed.

The Custom Pet Memorial Name Necklace is a made-to-order name pendant, laser-cut as one seamless piece in Latin script with full diacritics. Type any name up to 12 characters, choose from 4 finishes and 3 chain lengths, with a live preview before you order. Nothing here exists until you ask for it, so allow 4 to 5 business days to make it.
What is the Custom Pet Memorial Name Necklace?
The name itself is the pendant. It is cut from one sheet of metal rather than assembled from separate letters, so there is nothing soldered on that can work loose. It belongs to our personalized name necklaces.
- Script: Latin with full diacritics, so á, ñ, ü, ő, ç and ż are cut exactly as written
- Characters: up to 12, one continuous word
- Finishes: Gold, Silver and Rose Gold in surgical grade steel, plus 18K Gold Vermeil
- Chain lengths: S 14" / 35cm, M 16" / 40cm and L 18" / 45cm, each with a 2" / 5cm extender
Who wears one, and when?
- The first weeks after, when the house is quiet and the name still comes out loud
- A gift for someone grieving a pet, who has been told it was only an animal
- The anniversary of the day they went, marked, rather than avoided
- A gotcha day that comes around anyway, the date still means something
- A family that lost a dog everyone loved, one for each person who is missing them
- Someone getting a new pet, the old name kept, not replaced
What else do you make with a name on it?
Same customizer, same metals, a different piece.

Care and warranty
Waterproof in Gold, Rose Gold and Silver. Shower, swim, sweat. Those three never need to come off.
18K Gold Vermeil is the precious one. Solid 925 sterling silver under real 18K gold. Take it off before you swim, before a long soak and before perfume, and it stays beautiful for years.
Easy care. Wipe with the included microfiber cloth after lotion or perfume. Store in the box.
Avoid. Abrasive cleaners, bleach, and forceful bending. Durable is not indestructible.
10 year warranty on the plated finishes, 2 years on vermeil. Defects, premature tarnishing and structural issues under normal wear. Send us a photo and we put it right.

Questions before you order
See all FAQsWhat is it made of, and what is the difference between plated and vermeil?
Four finishes, and they are not the same kind of thing underneath.
- Gold · 18K Plated, Silver · Rhodium Plated and Rose Gold · 18K Plated. 304 surgical grade stainless steel finished in 18K gold PVD, rhodium or 18K rose gold PVD. PVD bonds the gold to the steel and is roughly five times more durable than standard gold plating.
- 18K Gold Vermeil. Solid 925 sterling silver under a minimum of 2.5 microns of real 18K gold. That is genuine precious metal, noticeably heavier in the hand, and warmer in color.
The plated three are the tougher option. Vermeil is the precious one.
Can I wear it in the shower or the pool?
In Gold, Silver and Rose Gold, yes. Those three are fully waterproof and tarnish resistant, so you can shower, swim, sweat and sleep in it without taking it off.
In 18K Gold Vermeil, take it off first. Vermeil is real gold over solid sterling silver rather than a hard industrial coating, so it asks for the care fine jewelry has always asked for: off before swimming, off before a long soak, and on after perfume rather than before.
Will it fade, tarnish or turn my skin green?
No. Skin turns green because of brass and copper, and there is neither in any Gemiria piece. There is no nickel either, which is what usually causes a reaction.
The plated finishes are covered for 10 years against premature tarnishing, discoloration and chain or clasp failure under normal wear. 18K Gold Vermeil is covered for 2 years on the same terms.
Is it hypoallergenic?
Yes. Every finish is nickel free and lead free. The plated three are 304 surgical grade stainless steel, the same family of steel used for body jewelry and surgical instruments, and 18K Gold Vermeil is solid sterling silver under real gold. If you react to costume jewelry, the metal causing it is almost always nickel, and there is none here.
How many characters fit?
Up to 12 characters, typed as one continuous word. The field does not take spaces, because a space is almost always somebody trying to fit two names onto a piece built for one. For two or more names, we make a separate piece where each name gets its own field.
Full diacritics are cut exactly as typed, so á, é, í, ñ, ü, ő, ç, ø, å, š and ż come out as themselves rather than stripped back to a bare letter.
How long is the chain, and which length should I choose?
Three lengths, and every necklace includes a 2" / 5cm extender.
- S, 14" / 35cm. Sits high on the collarbone.
- M, 16" / 40cm. Falls just below it. Our most popular length.
- L, 18" / 45cm. Sits lower, for a relaxed layered look.
Buying it as a gift and do not know her chain length? Choose M. With the extender it covers 16" to 18".
How long does it take to arrive?
Every piece is made after you order it, so there are two clocks.
- Production: 4 to 5 business days.
- Delivery: 1 to 2 weeks after it ships.
- Total: most orders arrive 10 to 28 days from the order date.
Shipping is free worldwide, fully tracked and insured, with no minimum, and all import duties, taxes and tariffs are covered in every destination. FedEx Express is available at checkout for the US, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Australia and more.
What happens if the name comes out wrong?
If the error is ours, we replace it free or refund you in full, and we cover the return shipping with a prepaid label. Report it within 14 days of delivery with your order number and a photo.
If the spelling submitted was wrong, we cannot remake it free, because the piece was cut to exactly that text. This is why the live preview exists, and why customization can still be changed within 24 hours of ordering, before production starts.
Personalized items are exempt from the standard EU right of withdrawal under Consumer Rights Directive Article 16(c). That exemption never applies to a defect or a production error.
How do I look after it?
Very little, and none of it is fussy.
- Wipe it with the included microfiber cloth after lotion or perfume.
- For a deeper clean use mild soap and warm water, then pat dry.
- Store it in its box, and keep pieces apart so they do not scratch each other.
- Keep it away from bleach, chlorine soaking, abrasive cleaners and ultrasonic cleaners.
- In 18K Gold Vermeil, take it off before swimming, long soaks, perfume and hairspray.
Can I use a nickname instead of the registered name?
Yes, and most people do. We cut exactly what you type, so the name they actually answered to is the one that goes on the metal, not the one on the paperwork.
