Ash pendant 925 silver 'Urn'

Carried with you, as close as you choose

An ash pendant is not a decorative piece. It is a considered way of keeping a connection tangible, on your terms, visible to others only if you want it to be.

What the pendant is and how it works

This ash pendant is made from 925 silver, the standard known as sterling silver. That means 92.5% of the metal is pure silver, with a small addition of copper for strength and durability. Sterling silver has been the benchmark for quality silver jewellery for centuries, and it holds its shape and lustre through daily wear. The pendant is sealed with a small screw fitting, which you use to fill it yourself. Inside, you can place a small portion of ashes, a little soil from the grave, or a lock of hair. Step-by-step instructions are included to guide you through the process.

Wearing it your way

The pendant is supplied without a chain. That is a practical choice: it gives you the freedom to thread it onto a chain that already holds meaning for you, or to choose something new that suits how you want to wear it. The screw closure keeps the contents secure during everyday wear.

Something physical to hold on to

The jeweller behind this piece describes these pendants as quiet keepsakes, jewellery with a soul. That is not a marketing phrase. It points to something specific: when something physical from the person or animal you have lost becomes part of an object you wear every day, the bond you shared is given a place that stays. That matters in a way that is difficult to put into words, and does not need to be.

Caring for sterling silver

925 silver can tarnish with prolonged exposure to moisture or perfume. When you are not wearing the pendant, store it somewhere dry, ideally in a closed box or pouch. A gentle wipe with a soft cloth will keep the silver bright. The screw fitting is designed for normal daily use, but it is worth checking it occasionally to make sure the closure is sitting flush and secure.

The form and what it means

The shape of this pendant is a deliberate reference to an urn: the idea of something precious being held and protected. If you would like the piece to say a little more about the person you are remembering, consider pairing it with a chain that belonged to them, or wearing it alongside another memorial piece from the same sterling silver collection. Personalisation options may be available depending on your order; if you would like to discuss what is possible, we are happy to help.
