Wearing memorial jewellery is a unique and meaningful way to remember someone that you have lost. It can also help you to feel closer to them, and is something tangible that you can keep forever.
You can have memorial jewellery made in almost any material. However, precious metals such as gold, platinum and silver are the most durable. Furthermore, decorating your jewellery, such as engraving a person’s initials or adding their birthstone can make it even more personal.
Here are 3 sentimental ideas for memorial jewellery to honour a loved one.
Photo Memorial Jewellery
Photo memorial jewellery has been used for centuries and is still incredibly popular to this day. Because lockets have a large surface area for displaying imagery, they are the most common jewellery item for photos. What’s more, they also provide a protective shield to keep the image safe. However, you can have pictures inserted into other jewellery products, such as bracelets, brooches and even charms. What’s more, you can personalise your jewellery by inserting your chosen image into a frame of your choice. Whilst a heart shape is traditional, you could also opt for classy oval or square. No matter your preference, the final piece will serve as a beautiful reminder of the person you have lost.
Cremation Memorial Jewellery
Cremation memorial jewellery is truly unique, and is made by mixing a person’s ashes with resin, glass or metal. It is a beautiful way of honouring your loved one, and can help you to remember that they are always with you. Moreover, cremation jewellery can be made into a variety of exquisite products, including dazzling rings, pendants and even earrings.
Incorporate Your Loved One’s Handwriting
Engrave handwriting onto new or treasured jewellery to remember someone you have lost. There are many companies who offer this service, and all you need is a piece of paper with your loved one’s writing. So, have a look through letters, notes, and cards to find the right text. Once you’ve found a piece of writing that suits you, simply give it to your engraving company to do the rest. The result is a beautiful, individual piece with a deeply heartfelt and personal touch.
