Rachel Lé Char, a 29-year-old mom from Baltimore, Maryland, is living her dream. She runs a successful business while married and caring for her child, all within the comfort of her own home. Rachel doesn’t just run an ordinary jewelry business however. She makes jewelry out of human breast milk!

Rachel’s breast milk jewelry idea had its origins in a desire to create and spread joy inspired by the wonders of breastfeeding and breastmilk.

“I want to make another mama smile and to make them feel special because they’ve endured so much sacrifice throughout their breastfeeding journey. It’s not easy for many mothers to breastfeed and some cannot do it at all because of special circumstances. Some women have to do something called “exclusive pumping” due to complications. I’ve been there. I know what that’s like. I felt like a failure. Other moms helped lift my spirits. I’m forever grateful for the support I got when I was struggling with breastfeeding. This is the feeling I want them to feel when they wear my jewelry.”

Moms from all over send in drops of breastmilk in a Ziploc to prevent leaks in the mail. According to Rachel, breastmilk has self-sustaining properties that keep it from spoiling right away so there’s no need for ice packs. She then takes this milk from each mother and turns every one of them into stone useful for jewelry making.

Another amazing feature of her jewelry is that each stone has its own unique texture and color it takes on from the breast milk the mother provides. This means that no two stones are alike, making this jewelry probably the most unique and personalized gift a breastfeeding mother could ever receive! No other jewelry maker in this category can boast the results Rachel gets.

The surprises don’t stop there. Her store, Precious Mammaries, also offers jewelry made from mothers’ placenta or baby’s lock of hair. For the tragic passing of a dear one, ashes can also be preserved in jewelry.

Besides the jewelry, Rachel makes soaps right in her kitchen made from breast milk as well. For ages, breast milk has been prized for its health benefits and utilized in every possible form, and that includes direct application to the skin. What better way for a tired mama to pamper and heal herself than to bathe with her own breast milk!

Rachel remarks on her inspiration for Precious Mammaries:

“I owe this dream come true to our little one. She is the inspiration for this business. I wouldn’t be featuring breast milk in jewelry if not for her cooperation in this two-person dance called breastfeeding.”

The Precious Mammaries website can be found at yourbreastmilk.com. It features regularly updated designs for breast milk jewelry. Its Instagram account updates daily with photos of customer images of their own breast milk, placenta, or lock-of-hair jewelry made by Rachel.
