When a loved one passes away, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the pressure of organising the right kind of funeral. And during this process, it’s not uncommon for many to put the grieving process on hold while they take care of everyone else’s needs. It is, however, important that you think about how you personally want to remember the life of the deceased. Opting for cremation gives you the flexibility to sprinkle the ashes in a special location, keep hold of them, or, have them made into a bespoke jewellery piece.
For a little more information about what cremation jewellery is and why it’s special, read on.
What is cremation jewellery?
Cremation jewellery, also known as remembrance jewellery or funeral jewellery, is made from a small amount of your loved one’s ashes. Available in the form of a ring, pendant, broach or locket, these pieces can be worn or kept on display as a comforting reminder of the individual who has passed. If you decide on a burial, you can also have funeral jewellery made. At Stockman & Loram, we can arrange for the fingerprint of your loved one to be placed on jewellery to create a special keepsake.
Why choose cremation jewellery?
The way you decide to lay your loved one to rest will depend on their wishes, and while burials will give you a place to visit them, and cremations allow you to spread their ashes, having something you can always have with you is a great way of comforting yourself and others. Cremation jewellery could be the perfect choice if you’re looking for something:
Comforting
If the burial ground is not local to you and you’d like something personal to remember a loved one by, jewellery is a great option to consider. Having a pendant close to your chest or a broach that you can add to whatever you’re wearing means you always have a little piece of them wherever you go.
Aesthetically Pleasing
As well as the comfort cremation jewellery can provide, these creations are also beautiful to look at. Not only can they be used for comfort, but these are also high-quality jewellery pieces, which in their own right, are lovely to look at.
Personal
If you don’t have any personal belongings of your loved one that you can keep using their ashes to make something special could be perfect for you. Why not have jewellery made in their favourite colour, style or jewel? This kind of keepsake is also something unique that you can pass on to your children and other members of your family, or, have a whole set made for each member so you all have a unique tribute to those who have passed on.
