Custom Photo Necklaces With Your Photo or Name

Custom photo necklaces here are pendants that carry a photograph you upload, whether of a partner, a child, a parent, a pet or someone you are remembering, printed in full colour to be worn close. The shelf holds an Oval Pendant and an Oval Necklace, a Heart Frame Photo Pendant, a Sterling Silver Round Photo Necklace, a Cable Chain Photo Necklace with a custom cut pendant and a Dog Tag Photo Necklace. Most of these styles also come engraved, for a name, a date or a short line marked in one tone instead of a photo. Prices run €24.72–€41.20 depending on the style. Every custom photo necklace starts from one uploaded photo or a typed line of text, placed inside the pendant’s shape and previewed before you pay, so you can see how a face sits in the oval, the heart or the round frame. A close crop, good light and a plain background give a small pendant the most to work with. They suit an anniversary, Mother’s Day, a birthday, a memorial, or a gift for someone who lives far away.

Oval, heart, round or dog tag photo necklaces

The Oval Pendant and the Oval Necklace hold a portrait in a simple oval. The Heart Frame Photo Pendant sets the photo inside a heart, a natural fit for an anniversary or Valentine’s Day, the Sterling Silver Round Photo Necklace sets it in a round sterling silver pendant that suits a remembrance gift, and the Dog Tag Photo Necklace gives a photo a tag shape on its own chain.

The printed versions put the colour into the pendant’s surface rather than on top of it, so there is no layer to peel, and they read truest on a light base: white in the photo shows the pendant’s own surface. The guide to printing dye into a surface explains it.

The engraved versions mark the design in one tone with no shading, so they are for a name, a date, coordinates or a simple line drawing rather than a photograph, and the guide to engraving metal jewellery covers how small lettering can go.

Photo necklace gifts and matching keepsakes

The same photograph can travel further: personalized bracelets include a photo charm bracelet, custom keychains carry it on the keys, custom canvas prints put it on the wall and custom blankets wrap it around someone. A pet’s photo belongs on a pendant too.

Custom Photo Necklaces With Your Photo or Name — common questions

What kind of photo works best on a photo necklace?
A close crop of one or two faces, in good light, against a plain background. A pendant is small, so a wide group shot or a busy scene loses its detail, and the preview shows how your crop sits inside the oval, heart or round frame before you pay.
Can a photograph be engraved on a photo necklace?
Not as a likeness. Engraving marks one tone with no shading, so a photo becomes a solid patch. Choose the printed version of a pendant for the photo itself, and keep the engraved versions for a name, a date, coordinates or a simple line drawing.
Which photo necklace suits a memorial gift?
The Sterling Silver Round Photo Necklace sets the photo in a round sterling silver pendant that reads as a keepsake, and the Heart Frame Photo Pendant is the softer alternative. Both come printed with a full-colour photo of the person or pet being remembered.
Does the dog tag necklace come with a chain?
Yes, the Dog Tag Photo Necklace is a dog tag pendant on its own chain, and it comes either printed with a photo or engraved with a name. For the oval, heart, round and custom cut pendants, check each product page for what comes with the pendant.
Why do white areas of my photo look different on the pendant?
The printed pendants add colour into their surface, and white in a photo adds no colour, so those areas show the pendant’s own surface. Photos with strong mid-tones and little blown-out white come out best on a pendant this small.
