There are many different options for jewellery to help you remember that special person, but here are a few of the more popular choices.

Lockets

A locket is a hollow piece of Keepsake memorial jewellery with a hinge on it to permit the storage of things inside. You can add a tiny photograph of the deceased, for example. You can also keep actual items, such as a lock of hair or a little of their ashes so you can carry them with you wherever you go. These are usually worn around the neck and can be in the shape of a heart or oval, as well as many custom shapes. You may also ask to have the locket engraved or set with stones on the outside.

Vials

Some people prefer something a little different for storing ashes or hair. You may want to purchase a small vial that you can fill with ashes and carry it with you. These can be made of glass or plastic or even crystal and often come with a stopper and chain so you can wear it as a necklace.

Resin

Resin is a viscous, clear liquid that hardens up to create a solid piece of jewellery. You may have seen this in the form of earrings or bracelets before, with flowers trapped inside. It’s possible to make them from items that belonged to your loved one, as well. For example, you can add tiny pieces of fabric from their clothes, or swirls of their hair. Even ashes can be incorporated into the resin jewellery, which may be entirely made of resin, or turned into a “stone” that is then added to a setting for a more formal piece of jewellery.

Engraved

Another option is engraving. This is cutting into metal just enough to leave an impression and can be a wonderful way of adding a design to any piece of gold or silver jewellery. To make it extra special, you can have a quote from your loved one engraved on the jewellery, or you can engrave their fingerprint or even transfer some of their handwriting to a bracelet.
