Keepsake Jewelry Information
Memorial Jewelry Pendants: A Short Summary
Memorial Pendants is a general term that is used to describe Keepsake Jewelry, Keepsake Urn Necklaces, Cremation Jewelry, and Urn Pendants. All are relatively interchangeable terms that refer to wearable pendants or jewelry that are designed to allow you to carry a small amount of your loved ones ashes with you.
The tradition of keepsake jewelry goes back to the Middle Ages when "Memento Mori" ("Remember Me") jewelry was created by encasing a lock of hair in gold, silver or other precious material.
Memorial Jewelry Pendants are versatile in the sense that they may be used to hold cremated remains (ashes), a lock of hair or even dried ceremonial flowers. Memorial jewelry pendants are small, so they require only a tiny amount of cremated remains.

When you are not wearing your Memorial Jewelry Pendant, you have the option of displaying them in a Keepsake Glass Dome. These are blown glass domes that have a hook which allows you to hang your pendant and keep it safe while still displaying it. Keepsake Glass Domes have bases that are made of pewter or brass with a gold overlay.
