It can be comforting to save a small amount of the ashes of a loved one or pet, or a lock of hair or some earth from the grave. Ashes jewellery, such as ash pendants or ash charms, are a way to safeguard that symbolic representation and keep them close to you.
Cremation jewellery differs from memorial jewellery: a memorial piece does not have a space to store ashes. Besides memorial pieces, common options are pendants, charms, or jewellery with fingerprints. Each come with their own advantage.
We offer a variety of jewellery suitable to store the ashes of your loved one or pet. These pendants, necklaces, and charms all come with a ‘filling guide’ to make it easy to transfer the remains into the jewellery. You can use a filling and sealing kit to fill your remembrance jewellery and seal it.
Please note: to fully ensure that the jewellery remains closed, we recommend that your keepsake is sealed by a jeweller (either with glue or by soldering).
For the most part, caring for your cremation jewellery is similar to regular jewellery. However, there are a few additional things to keep in mind:
In general, yes. Depending on the material, you may be asked to remove your jewellery holding ashes before you go through security — but this would be true for all jewellery. So a pendant, charm or necklace containing ashes should not be a problem. If you’re taking a cremation urn onto a plane, there are some additional rules to follow.
We understand that the decision of getting the right keepsake can be difficult. If you have any questions you’d like to ask, feel free to contact us. You can reach us by phone from Monday to Friday during office hours. You can also fill in the contact form, send an e-mail or chat with us.
