How it works
Short Tandem Repeats
Once your swabs arrive at the lab, we start creating your unique DNA profile using STR analysis. Unlike ancestry or health DNA tests, STR analysis is the gold standard for personal identification—it’s what forensic scientists use in criminal cases and what you see in shows like CSI and Silent Witness. This means your jewelry is based on the most accurate, reliable genetic profiling available.

Mapping your profile to our jewellery
We take all your chromatographs (5 in total) and overlay them onto a single scale, combining your genetic markers into one comprehensive pattern.
Think of it like layers of tracing paper, each showing different coloured peaks at different positions. When we stack them together, we can see exactly where each genetic marker sits along the scale.
This overlapped pattern is what becomes your necklace design
**On the image above we have only overlapped 3/5 chromatographs to make it easier to see visually so some alleles wont be shown.
The final product
Then your necklace is hand made based from the template your very own DNA gave to us. This produces a beautiful wrok of art which is a true one of one peice which can’t be replicated.*
