Thumbies® and Buddies™ - Personal Pet Keepsakes - Woodstock, IL

In 1998, an idea was born when a man was comforted by his daughters’ fingerprint charms designed by his mother. Struck by how much the personal keepsakes meant to him, he believed others would cherish similar pieces. With a strong commitment to providing jewelry of connection, Thumbies® was founded.

Today the power of the human connection is the driving force behind the Thumbies® and Buddies™ lines. Through our proprietary manufacturing process, our skilled artisans create fully-cast pieces in seven days or less. With our unique skills and manufacturing agility, Thumbies® is proud to be the only jewelry keepsake company able to create custom pieces.
