Delivery and returns

Free UK tracked delivery on every order. This pendant ships from stock, so it arrives in 2 to 3 days rather than the 2 to 3 weeks our made to order pieces take. Returns are covered by our refund and returns policy.

Materials

1 micron gold plating over 925 sterling silver. Six prong set oval zircon stones. About 25mm across, roughly a ten pence coin. Matching cable chain, finished with the DesigNA tag.

Where the colours come from

To read a DNA profile a laboratory tags each marker with a coloured fluorescent dye, so the profile comes back as a trace in blue, green, yellow and red. The stones here borrow those colours. They are decorative and hold no information about you.

Anatomy of the piece

The colours a reading comes back in

A laboratory tags each marker with a fluorescent dye, and the profile returns as a trace in those colours. This pendant borrows them. The key matches the stones marked on the photograph.

DNA Representation Pendant hanging from its gold chain, with the stones and setting labelled.
  1. Not made from a sampleThis is the one piece in the range that is not generated from your DNA. It borrows the colours a reading comes back in.
  2. The dye coloursA laboratory tags each marker with a fluorescent dye, and a profile comes back as a trace in those colours. Green, red and blue are three of them.
  3. The clear stonesThree clear zircons, cut and set the same way, hold the ring together between the colours.
  4. The settingSix oval zircons prong set in a circular gold plated setting, on a matching cable chain.

The DesigNA standard

The same box, the same care.

The pendant is the one piece in the range with no profile behind it, so it ships straight away. Everything else about it is DesigNA.

Giving one as a gift

The practical questions before you give one.

Can I buy a DNA necklace as a surprise?

You can surprise someone with the kit, not with the swab. An adult's DNA is analysed only with their own consent, so the swab has to be taken by the person wearing the piece. Most people give the kit as the visible gift, open it together, and the finished piece arrives a few weeks later as the second half.

How far ahead do I need to order for a birthday or Christmas?

Two parts are fixed: 2 to 3 working days for the kit to reach you, then 2 to 3 weeks of making from the day the laboratory has the swab. In between is however long the swab takes to come back, so swab early and it is usually about three to four weeks in all. For Christmas 2026 the order by date is Sunday 15 November. After that, give the kit on the day and let the piece follow.

Is a DNA necklace a good gift for an 18th or 21st birthday?

Yes. It is a first piece of real jewellery, 925 sterling silver or 9ct gold, and it is made from the person's own profile, so it belongs to them in a way nothing bought off a shelf can. The kit can be the present they open on the day, and the piece follows a few weeks later.

What do I get for my money?

The DNA collection kit, the laboratory reading of 23 identity markers, the design generated from it, a piece hand made in the UK in 925 silver, freshwater pearl or 9ct gold with natural stone markers, a signed certificate of authenticity, the signature black box, and free UK tracked delivery for both the kit and the finished piece.
