PIERCING

PIERCING

A piercing is a ritual. A moment of choice. A form of adornment that becomes part of you.

Our piercing experience is calm, professional, and deeply considered. We work with high-quality materials and experienced piercers, ensuring both safety and beauty are held at the same level.

What to expect:

  • Expert piercers using sterile, industry-approved methods
  • Thoughtful jewellery selection, from subtle everyday pieces to statement talismans
  • Guidance on placement, healing, and aftercare
  • A relaxed, supportive environment where you’re never rushed

Whether it’s your first piercing or your next, this is about marking the body with intention.

ZAPPING · PERMANENT BRACELETS

ZAPPING · PERMANENT BRACELETS

Zapping is the act of sealing jewellery permanently onto the body.

This experience is often chosen to mark connection, commitment, or a personal vow. A bracelet or anklet is fitted precisely and closed without a clasp, becoming a continuous circle.

Why people choose zapping:

  • To symbolise a bond, promise, or milestone
  • To mark a moment in time
  • To wear something uninterrupted, constant, and intentional

Zapping can be done solo or shared with a partner, friend, or loved one. It’s simple, meaningful, and quietly powerful.

A Gift That Stays

Zapping makes an exceptional gift.

We have curated private and corporate events where permanent bracelets were offered to valued clients - an elevated gesture that lingers long after the evening ends.

It is equally powerful for bridal showers and intimate celebrations, where a shared bracelet becomes a shared memory.

Not just given. Sealed.

BESPOKE

BESPOKE

Bespoke is where your story becomes a one-of-a-kind piece. This experience is for those wanting something deeply personal. A ring, pendant, or talisman created specifically for you or someone you love.

Bespoke may include:

  • Custom design consultations
  • Stone selection based on meaning, energy, or aesthetic
  • Fingerprints, symbols, engravings, or personal marks
  • Reworking heirloom pieces or old gold into something new

This is a collaborative process. We take time to listen, design, refine, and create something that carries weight, memory, and meaning.

Bespoke pieces are made slowly, intentionally, and with care.

INTENTION BEADING RITUAL

INTENTION BEADING RITUAL

Beading is the act of threading intention into form. This experience is often chosen to mark growth, transition, celebration or collective connection.

Guests select from a curated selection of gemstones and symbolic charms, each carrying its own meaning. Guided by intention, they create a bracelet, necklace or mala that reflects the energy of the moment.

Each piece is thoughtfully finished to ensure it carries the quality and aesthetic of Black Betty.

Why people choose the beading ritual:

  • To anchor a personal intention
  • To honour a milestone or shared experience
  • To create something meaningful by hand
  • To gather in a way that feels creative and connected

The beading ritual can be intimate or shared, reflective or celebratory. It invites conversation, presence and creativity into the space.

A Gift With Meaning: The beading ritual makes a powerful offering at private and corporate events. We have curated gatherings where gemstones were selected to align with company values, life transitions or personal milestones.

It is equally beautiful for bridal showers, women’s circles and milestone birthdays, where each guest leaves wearing something they created with intention.

The Imprint Necklace

THE IMPRINT RITUAL

A fingerprint is the most personal signature there is. In this ritual, we capture your mark and transform it into a piece designed to be worn for life. Choose between two methods: a wax imprint cast directly into metal, or a digitally captured imprint engraved with precision.

A note on meaning: Signets have always symbolised identity and legacy. This one holds something even closer. Wear your own mark, or carry the mark of someone you love.

Our Newest Ritual: The Fingerprint Ritual is one of our newest and most personal offerings - now curated as a refined gifting experience for corporate gatherings, bridal celebrations and private milestones.

It has been chosen as a meaningful gesture for valued clients, leadership events and intimate bridal parties.

Not just a gift. A signature made permanent.

Ready to create yours? Book your session and we’ll guide you through the process in store.

Option 1: Wax Imprint, Cast in Metal

his is the most tactile version of the ritual. Your fingerprint is pressed into soft wax and then cast into metal, preserving the raw, organic detail of the original impression.

Step by step

  1. Choose your piece

    Select your signet or pendant style and metal.
  2. Create your imprint

    In store, you press your fingerprint into a small ball of wax. We guide you to get the clearest, deepest impression.
  3. Cast from your wax

    Your wax imprint is sent to casting and transformed into metal through the traditional lost wax process.
  4. Finish and polish

    We refine the surface, clean the edges, and complete the piece in your chosen finish.
  5. Collect and wear

    Your imprint is now a permanent mark in metal, ready to wear daily.

Best for: a more organic feel, a true cast from the original imprint, one of a kind texture.

Option 2: Digital Imprint, Engraved

This version captures your fingerprint digitally and engraves it into your piece with crisp precision. Ideal if you want a cleaner, more graphic imprint, or if you can’t make it into store.

Step by step

  1. Choose your piece

    Select your signet or pendant style and metal.
  2. Capture your fingerprint

    We take a high quality fingerprint scan in store, or you can send one to us if you’re remote.
  3. Prepare your imprint

    We refine the file for clarity and depth, ensuring it engraves beautifully on the metal.
  4. Engrave your piece

    Your fingerprint is engraved into your chosen surface with precision and consistency.
  5. Finish and polish

    We complete your piece in your preferred finish and quality check the final detail.

Best for: clean, consistent detail, remote orders, a more minimal and precise aesthetic.
