Written In Gold is a company that transforms real handwriting from cards, letters, and even tattoos into custom fine jewelry cast in gold or gold-plated sterling silver and diamonds. Each piece is individually digitized, modeled, molded, cast, and set by hand, ensuring that no two creations are alike.
Preserving Handwritten Messages
There is something uniquely personal about handwriting. The way a mother signs a birthday card, the way a father scrawls a quick note in a lunchbox, the way a grandparent writes a letter that arrives smelling faintly of their home. These marks are as unique as fingerprints, and for many people, handwritten messages become some of the most treasured possessions left behind when a loved one is gone.
Written In Gold was created to preserve these handwritten messages forever in gold and diamonds. The company takes actual handwriting from cards, letters, notes, and even tattoos and transforms it into fine jewelry crafted from gold or gold-plated sterling silver, set with diamonds.
The origin story of Written In Gold is rooted in a deeply personal loss. A father looked at his young daughter and was struck by the realization that the hands guiding her through life, the hands that comforted her and wrote her countless notes, would not always be there. Determined to give her something she could hold onto forever, he created a golden necklace cast in his and her mother’s actual handwriting, bearing the words ‘We Love You.’ After he was gone, that piece sparked a company dedicated to helping others preserve the handwriting of those they cherish most.
The response from customers has been overwhelmingly emotional. Testimonials shared on the company website and highlighted on the brand’s Instagram account reveal stories of mothers who wear their growing children’s signatures close, daughters who carry their late fathers’ words of encouragement on their wrists, and wives who have turned anniversary cards into pendants they never remove. For many, these pieces serve as a source of profound comfort during grief, offering a physical connection to someone whose presence can no longer be felt but whose handwritten messages remain.
