    Learn More About Cremation & Memorial Jewelry

    Cremation jewelry for ashes and memorial jewelry are both worn as keepsakes to honor loved ones who have passed away, but there are a few key differences between the two.


    Cremation jewelry, like rings and bracelets, keeps a loved one close to you wherever you go by incorporating their ashes into the piece. Memorial jewelry usually includes meaningful symbols that spark fond memories and commemorate the closeness you shared, but may not include ashes, like cremation jewelry does.


    Cremation jewelry can be used to commemorate a loved one in other ways as well, like by incorporating a lock of hair, a piece of fabric from a favorite garment, or some other physical token of remembrance.

    Thoughtful designers on Etsy take great care to treat your loved one's ashes with the utmost respect, either by containing the ashes within a small case built into the jewelry or by infusing remnants directly into the piece's material. Whatever way you wish to keep a loved one close to your heart, one of these types of unique cremation jewelry might be just what you're looking for:


    • Cremation urn jewelry: This type of memorial jewelry secures the ashes of your loved one in a small, enclosed space, such as a cremation locket or an ornamental ash capsule. Thoughtful sellers on Etsy offer an array of custom urn jewelry in different shapes—such as urns in the form of hearts, crosses, or flowers—and inscribed with significant details like important dates, your loved one's name, and a special message.
    • Cremation ash jewelry: This style of remembrance jewelry incorporates cremation ashes into the material itself. Skilled artisans often create glass ash beads that they can use to make bracelets, rings, and other ash jewelry pieces to keep your loved one with you always.

    Memorial jewelry often incorporates something special, like a fingerprint, a meaningful quote or phrase, or your loved one's image. As you choose a piece that embodies the spirit of your loved one, consider these popular designs:


    • Memorial lockets: The perfect piece to honor them through a treasured photo, these small, wearable cases let you keep a picture of your loved one securely inside. You can also work with a seller to create a custom laser picture locket that features your loved one's image on the front or inside the charm.
    • Memorial fingerprint jewelry: This style of jewelry uses your loved one's fingerprint, which is copied and etched into a bracelet charm or locket. Add more personalization by working with a seller on Etsy to customize the piece with their name, initials, or an inscription that commemorates the bond you shared.

    If you've lost a beloved cat, dog, or other pet, many designers create memorial jewelry to commemorate your best animal friend and to help you keep their memory alive. Pet cremation and memorial jewelry comes in an array of styles from sellers on Etsy, including these commemorative pieces that honor your special four-legged friend:


    • Pet memorial necklaces: A laser-etched photo charm or a pendant with an engraved paw print lets you keep a reminder of a cherished pet. On Etsy, you’ll find styles like photo lockets and engraved dog tags that help you keep the memory of your pet close by.
    • Pet ash keepsakes: Shops on Etsy offer a wide selection of wearable urns and cases perfectly suited to hold the ashes of a dear furry friend. Or you might prefer to keep a tuft of fur in a locket to carry a piece of your animal buddy with you forever.
