Your pet’s face, needled from wool by hand and small enough to carry wherever you go.
The same beautiful craft as our framed portraits, at the size of a thumb. A hand-felted replica of your pet’s head on a keyring or a bag charm, worked strand by strand from your photographs — so the coat, the markings and the set of the ears are all unmistakably theirs. A little piece of your pet, in your pocket or on your bag, every single day.
Made by hand, from your photographs
- Needle-felted by hand from soft dyed wool over a firm core, so it holds its shape however often you carry it.
- Made to look like your pet — the face, the fur, the expression. Send us several photographs and we take it from there.
- Choose your fitting — keyring, bag charm or lanyard, whichever suits you.

Each size is a close-up photograph of a small, beautifully made object — in the hand, the 6 cm size sits neatly in your palm. The larger you go, the more of the fine detail the wool can hold.
Every face is made for one pet
There is no mould and no template. Your pet’s head is built up by hand, the fur laid in shade by shade, until the face looking back at you is theirs and no one else’s. This is why no two charms we make are ever quite the same — and why yours will be the only one in the world like it.
Love the craft but want it bigger? The framed portrait is the same hand-felting on a far larger scale, where every strand of the coat can really show.
Made to order, and made to last
Felt takes time, and it is worth it. We confirm your dispatch date when we accept the commission, and email it to you. Once it is yours, a gentle brush with a dry finger keeps it looking lovely for years — and because the wool is needled tight around a firm core, it is happy to be carried every day.
Questions we are asked
Will it stand up to daily use?
Yes — it is made to be carried. The core is firm and the wool is needled tight, so it keeps its shape on your keys or your bag.
What photographs should I send?
A clear front-on shot and a profile or two, in daylight. The more we see of the face, the truer it will be.
Can I send more photographs later?
Yes, from your account, right up until we begin work.
Can you do two pets on one charm?
Yes — two heads side by side on a larger fitting. Just ask and we will quote it.
