Silver (925) Ash Pendant 'Parent with Child'

What remains of the bond you shared

Some losses sit beyond words. The death of a child, or saying goodbye to a parent, is one of them. This ash pendant in rhodium-plated 925 silver was designed around exactly that bond: the connection between parent and child that does not end at death.

Handcrafted in hallmarked 925 silver

The pendant is made by hand, because the level of detail in its form demands it. Production at scale would compromise the finish, and that is not acceptable for a piece like this. The silver is rhodium-plated: a fine layer of rhodium strengthens the metal, prevents oxidation, and holds the lustre far longer than untreated silver would. The 925 hallmark is not a marketing term. It is an officially recognised quality mark, confirming the piece has been independently tested and meets strict standards for silver content.

What the pendant can hold

You fill the pendant yourself, via a small internal screw fitting. As a physical keepsake, you can choose to place a little ash, some soil from the grave, or a lock of hair inside. The pendant is finished in such a way that it does not read as an ash holder to anyone who does not already know, which matters to many people who wear one.

Practical to wear every day

Rhodium-plated silver is resistant to moisture and everyday atmospheric conditions, which makes this cremation urn pendant suitable for regular wear. That said, every piece of silver jewellery benefits from a little care: remove it before contact with chlorine, and avoid applying perfume directly onto the metal, so the rhodium layer stays intact over time.

What to expect when your pendant arrives

The pendant arrives in rhodium-plated 925 silver, with a filling guide to help you place your chosen keepsake inside. It is supplied without a chain, which gives you the freedom to choose one that suits the person you are remembering, or simply one that feels right to you. The 925 hallmark is present on the piece as confirmation of its tested quality.

A keepsake you put together yourself

Because you fill this urn for ashes yourself, you decide what memory it carries. It does not need to be a grand gesture. A lock of hair from your mother, a little ash from your child: the choice is yours, and that choice makes this pendant personal in a way that goes beyond what engraving alone can do.

If you would like to personalise the pendant further, engraving options may be available depending on the supplier. Take your time looking at it. There is no rush here.
