Teardrop shaped glass keepsake ashes urn 'Memorie'

When words aren't enough, an object speaks

Sometimes it isn't a photograph or a piece of text that holds the most meaning. It's something you can hold. The 'Memorie' is a teardrop-shaped keepsake urn in deep blue crystal glass, small in size and considered in every detail, made to hold what mattered most to you.

Hand-blown crystal glass

Crystal glass demands real skill to work with. Each teardrop form is individually blown and shaped, which means no two pieces are identical. The transparency of the glass is deliberate: a portion of the ashes sits visible within the material, and when light passes through the deep blue glass, it creates something that shifts with the hour and the season. The interplay of ashes, colour and light makes each piece entirely its own.

What stays close

At the centre of the teardrop sits a small chamber for ashes. A portion of the cremation ashes can be placed there and kept permanently. The chamber is sealed with a self-adhesive closing disc, securing the contents so they remain protected over time. This keepsake urn holds its place quietly wherever you choose to put it, and the bond you shared stays present within it.

Caring for crystal glass indoors

Crystal glass is a refined material and it benefits from a stable, sheltered position inside the home. Keep it away from direct sunlight and from surfaces where it could easily be knocked over. Avoid placing it where temperatures shift suddenly, such as a windowsill directly above a radiator, as thermal changes can stress the glass over time. Handled with reasonable care and placed well, this urn for ashes will last indefinitely. The self-adhesive seal provides a secure, permanent closure once fitted.

Finding a place for what never leaves

Deep blue is not an incidental choice. It is the colour of depth and of night, of water too vast to fully comprehend. If the person you have lost had a presence that needed no explanation, this colour fits that memory. The teardrop form reinforces it: water that falls, settles, and stays. Not as a symbol you need to consciously interpret, but as a shape that simply is what it is.

Your piece, your place

The 'Memorie' is designed for indoor use, as a fixed point of remembrance within your home. A mantelpiece, a windowsill, a personal corner set aside for them. It takes up little space and gives back a great deal. Because every piece is made by hand, what arrives with you is precisely this one, shaped for no one else.
