When our loved ones pass, many of us will want keepsakes to
remember them by. Physical objects help us feel a deeper connection, even when
our loved ones are gone. This sort of sentimentality has been shared in every
culture throughout history, and cremation
ash jewellery UK is one of the most popular ways to keep those we’ve lost
close to our hearts.
Today, Memorial jewellery UK comes in many forms
and can mean different things for everyone. It can be a necklace, ring,
bracelet, pendant, or keepsake to help you cherish the life of a friend,
spouse, or family member.
What kind of keepsake
memorial jewellery should I choose?
There are many different types of jewellery with which to
remember your loved ones. Some ideas include engraved pendants, lockets for
storing ashes or photos, gemstones made from ashes, jewellery made with a lock
of hair, bracelets with charms, or memorial cufflinks for men.
When selecting the right piece, it’s important to remember
that sentiment and meaning take precedence over the usual criteria when
shopping for keepsake jewellery ashes.
Things such as weight, gem cut, or price may not be as valuable to you.
However, always choose a piece that has been made to a high quality so that it
lasts for years to come.
Finding the right style is also important because your
jewellery is designed to be worn every day. Pendants can be a great idea if
your style tends to change as the chain can be altered, or it can even be
attached to a bracelet instead. One of the most famous historical jewelled
artefacts owned by the Royal Collection Trust once belonged to Queen Victoria,
who added a new charm to her bracelet for every child to whom she gave birth
(all nine). So charms can be ideal for remembering multiple people who were
dear to you.
Getting jewellery made from the ashes of loved
ones
Cremation jewellery for ashes
UK is one of the most popular forms of memorial
jewellery. There are many ways that cremation ashes can be incorporated into
jewellery design, so you can select the right style that works for you. Whether
you want something subtle that only you and your closest family members know
about, or an urn pendant, using cremation ashes for jewellery is a great
addition to scattering or storing at home.
Only a very small amount of ashes is needed to create your
chosen jewellery piece. Some options you could consider are:
●
A locket, vial or pendant capsule for keeping
ashes in
●
A subtle, classy Crystarosin gem necklace or ring
inlaid with ashes
●
An ashes-imprinted gold or silver bar pendant
The colour of loved ones’ ashes do vary, and so will weight
and consistency. This is due to many different natural factors, but experienced
jewellers can help you achieve jewellery to any colour of your liking.
Getting jewellery made from hair
An alternative to ashes jewellery is memorial jewellery made
from the hair of your loved ones. This is ideal for non-cremation ceremonies or
for those who prefer to scatter all the ashes somewhere special.
Inlaid hair inside gem earrings or cufflinks can be a great
way of locking a memory inside a piece of jewellery forever, with a beautiful
finish that looks the part for any formal occasion. Pendant capsules can be a
fantastic idea for storing any keepsakes you desire, with easy self-filling for
locks of hair.
Can I get jewellery designed to honour my pets?
Remembering our pets is just as important as celebrating the
lives of our human friends and family members. Whether you’ve had to say
goodbye to a dog, cat, horse, rabbit or hamster, losing a pet can be extremely
difficult. Some pets spend years or even decades as a part of your family, and
mourning them can be just as devastating as losing a close relative.
So whether you’ve lost a furry friend or something more exotic
like a reptile, cremation can be a good way to mark their passing and to have a
part of them to hold onto forever. Pet cremation services can be similar to the
ones for humans, and you’ll only need a very small amount of ashes to create
your perfect pet memorial jewellery. Jewellery items made from ashes can also
be a wonderful gift for someone close to you who has lost their beloved animal
companion. Just be sure to ask for permission to use their ashes.
