CREMATION JEWELRY FAQ's

WHAT IS CREMATION JEWELRY - MEMORIAL JEWELRY - A JEWELRY URN?
Cremation jewelry (also known as memorial jewelry, jewelry urns and keepsake jewelry) is jewelry that has been designed as a miniature cremation urn to safely and discreetly hold a small amount of cremation ashes or other keepsakes to remember a loved one. Cremation jewelry is a unique and modern alternative to traditional photo lockets, allowing you a great variety of memorial options with entirely fillable pendants capable of holding precious mementos.

Cremation jewelry can be used to hold memorial keepsakes such as a lock of hair, fur, soil from a funeral burial site or some dried petals from the funeral flowers and can be worn or stored in an elegant jewelry display in your home.

Our range of memorial jewelry includes memorial lockets designed especially as a memorial for the loss of a baby or child, infant loss or miscarriage as well as designs especially for pet loss.

HOW MUCH CREMATION ASHES OR KEEPSAKES WILL MY KEEPSAKE LOCKET HOLD?
This cremation jewelry has an entirely fillable interior. A generous amount of precious metal has been used to create each piece resulting in a solidly constructed pendant with an interior that is entirely fillable.

ARE THESE KEEPSAKE PENDANTS SUITABLE FOR ENGRAVING?
Yes. Our keepsake pendants are of such quality that they are all suitable for engraving. Even the Gold Vermeil keepsake pendants can be safely engraved. Please contact us if you need this service.

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY CREMATION JEWELRY?
We recommend that you care for your memorial jewelry urn as you would any piece of fine jewelry. We strongly suggest that you follow your Care Instructions supplied with your pendant.

WHAT IS GOLD VERMEIL?
Gold Vermeil has the look at feel of solid Gold without the high price. Vermeil is a very heavy layer of gold overlaid on solid Sterling Silver. It is very durable and, with care, will last a very long time. Traditional gold plating will wear off quite quickly and is nowhere near the quality of Gold Vermeil.

WHAT IS 14K GOLD AND HOW IS IT DIFFERENT THAN OTHER FORMS OF GOLD?
14K Gold is 14/24 pure gold (or 58.5% pure gold).
