Gumigem is a line of award-winning, baby-proof jewellery aimed at women with babies.

Babies love to grab, pull and chew on jewellery and Gumigem jewellery accommodates this, without damaging the jewellery or harming the baby. Gumigem bangles, bracelets, pendants and necklaces are stylish but practical and baby-friendly.

The jewellery is made from silicone – as with dummy teats, teething toys and baby spoons – so is soft and flexible. It is BPA, PVA, lead, latex and phthalate free, can withstand high temperatures and be easily washed in hot water or placed in the dishwasher. The necklaces come on a long cord, so there is plenty of reach for baby; for extra comfort and safety, each necklace has a breakaway clasp.

The jewellery was created by a Dundee-based entrepreneur, Jenny McLaughlan, while on maternity leave with her second child, and has been backed by David MacPherson BDS, Scottish Dentist of Year 2013, who says that Gumigem helps with the discomfort of teething and aids the eruption of baby teeth.
