β OUR STORY β
Made by hand. Made to outlive us.
Heirloom Paw was born the day I lost Momo, my first cat. I had hundreds of photos β but nothing I could hold. Nothing my hands could touch on the nights I missed her most.
So I taught myself the slow crafts β needle felting, leather, hand-painting on shell. Six months later I held the first piece: her face, made by hand. Something with weight. Something my children, one day, will inherit.
Today, our small studio crafts heirlooms for pet families around the world. Made by people. Made to last generations.

β FROM PET FAMILIES β
A wall of remembered companions.
Every piece, made by hand. Every face, a real pet. Every photo, a real family.
"I wear it every day. People stop me on the street to ask about it β and saying 'this is my cat Pumpkin' never gets old."
LAUREN K. Β· BROOKLYN, NY
"This is Biscuit. We lost him in November. The artist captured the way he tilted his head β I can't explain how much it means to wear him close."
PRIYA S. Β· TORONTO, CA
"Bought as our anniversary gift. My husband adopted Honey the week we got engaged β now I carry her with me. He cried. So did I."
REBECCA H. Β· AUSTIN, TX
"I'm not a baseball-cap guy. But this one has Theo on it, so now I am. The detail is unreal β even his asymmetric whiskers."
MARCUS T. Β· BERLIN, DE
"I expected a small ornament. What arrived was a museum piece. My daughter named it 'Little Cooper' and won't let anyone else touch it."
JAMES R. Β· DUBLIN, IE
"I sent three photos and a paragraph about her personality. They built her exactly. The look on her face is *her* look. I sit and stare at it most evenings."
