Breastmilk Jewellery South Africa
Breastmilk jewellery is a beautiful way to preserve a precious chapter of motherhood. Using a small amount of your own breast milk, each piece is handcrafted into a lasting keepsake that celebrates the unique bond between mother and child.
At Megan Goldner Designs, we create custom breastmilk jewellery for clients throughout South Africa, transforming treasured memories into wearable keepsakes that can be cherished for years to come.
What Is Breastmilk Jewellery?
Breastmilk jewellery is a unique keepsake created using a small amount of a mother’s own breast milk. The milk is carefully preserved and incorporated into a custom piece of jewellery, creating a lasting reminder of a special chapter in motherhood.
Each piece is handcrafted to order and can be customised with your choice of colours, shimmer, flakes, and design options. From elegant rings and pendants to earrings and bracelets, breastmilk jewellery offers a beautiful way to celebrate your breastfeeding journey and preserve memories that can be treasured for years to come.
Why Choose Breastmilk Jewellery?

- Preserve a once-in-a-lifetime memory

How Much Breast Milk Is Needed?
We require approximately 10ml – 15ml of breast milk for 1-2 pieces of jewellery. This is roughly equivalent to 2-3 teaspoons.
Please do not send large quantities unless requested, as only a small amount is needed to create your keepsake. Any unused breast milk will be safely disposed of after your order has been completed.
Breast milk can be sent fresh or frozen, and full instructions will be provided once your order has been placed.

Does breastmilk jewellery turn yellow?
Although we use high-quality jeweller’s grade resin, all resins may naturally amber or yellow over time. This process is gradual and can be significantly reduced by following our MGD Care Guide and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat, harsh chemicals, and perfumes.

Pixie was my soulmate and my constant companion for almost 17 years. When he passed away, I wanted something that would allow me to carry a part of him with me every day, but I also wanted the pieces to tell his story and reflect the bond we shared.
From the very beginning, Megan treated my keepsakes with such kindness, patience and respect. I arrived with very specific ideas, a lot of emotions, and probably far too many messages and reference photos, yet she never made me feel like a burden. She took the time to explain the process, answer my questions, and guide me through decisions when my grief made it difficult to see clearly.
The ocean pendant is absolutely breathtaking. The colours, depth and movement are beautiful, and seeing Pixie’s ashes incorporated into a scene that holds such meaning for me brought me to tears.
My keepsake pendant is equally special. Being able to see Pixie’s fur and ashes preserved together means more to me than I can ever explain. Knowing that a part of him is always with me brings an incredible sense of comfort.
What touched me most was the care taken with every detail, right down to the unexpected little pocket heart included in the package. Opening the box was an emotional experience, and it was clear that these pieces were created with genuine compassion and understanding.
These are not simply pieces of jewellery. They are tangible pieces of love, memory and connection.
Thank you, Megan, for helping me carry my Pixie with me, always. 🩵

Megan was incredibly helpful. I contacted her, scheduled a virtual meeting, shared my vision for the keepsake, and discussed all my concerns. She created the most beautiful keepsake ring, filled with the ashes of our beloved Great Dane.
I would highly recommend Megan! I’ve had my ring for a year now, and it still looks as perfect as the day I received it.

Both pieces are beautifully crafted and hold such deep emotional value. I wear them every day and find so much comfort knowing a part of my brother is always with me. The quality, care, and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of the jewelry and the service. This has truly been one of the most touching and worthwhile purchases I’ve ever made. I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for a lasting, tangible way to honor a loved one.

I wanted to get a ring and dragonfly necklace made with ashes from our 2 fur babies that we had lost in the last 2 years – they meant the world to us and were very close and I wanted to find someone who would treat the whole process with respect. Megan is that person.
Right from my very first correspondence she was helpful, friendly and constantly kept me updated on my order. I felt part of the process the whole way through, with WA chats discussing colors, designs, etc. and getting update videos and pictures.
Even the courier service getting ashes to her and getting order back was seamless, with updates at all stages.
Would definitely recommend to anyone!
