How much does custom ashes jewellery cost?
Small alterations or personalisation can start from around £195. Fully bespoke pricing depends on the design, precious metal, gemstones and work involved, and we will provide a clear quotation before you proceed.

How long does custom memorial jewellery or artwork take?
Custom designs usually take around 2–6 weeks from receipt of ashes or hair. We will confirm the expected timescale for your individual design.

Can you add ashes to my existing jewellery?
Yes, we regularly work with existing jewellery. Our team will assess the piece and explain what is possible.

I don’t know where to start. Can you still help?
Absolutely. Whether you have a fully formed idea or just a rough concept, we’ll guide you through the design process. Simply tell us about your ideas, style and approximate budget, and we’ll help create something truly personal.

Since 1996, we've chosen not to use resin in our memorial jewellery because we believe a memorial should be created using materials with a proven history of lasting quality. Precious metals, gemstones and glass have been used in fine jewellery for generations, which is why we continue to use these traditional materials today.

• 100% resin-free memorial jewellery.
• Created using traditional jewellery making techniques.
• Materials chosen for their beauty, quality and durability.
• Designed to be worn, loved and treasured for years to come.
• Handcrafted in our Worthing and Birmingham workshops.

We believe the materials used to create a memorial are just as important as the craftsmanship itself, which is why we've remained committed to this approach for 30 years.

Every piece of jewellery is handcrafted using solid precious metals by our experienced in-house jewellers. We work in sterling silver, 9ct and 18ct gold, and platinum, giving you the full choice of precious metals for your memorial.

• Sterling silver, 9ct gold, 18ct gold and platinum.
• Yellow, white and rose gold available.
• Handcrafted in our Worthing and Birmingham workshops.
• All jewellery is hallmarked by the Birmingham Assay Office.
• Our team can help you choose the right metal for your design, lifestyle and budget.

Every memorial begins with responsibly sourced materials. We carefully select trusted suppliers who share our commitment to quality, traceability and responsible sourcing, ensuring every piece is made with integrity from the very beginning.

• Responsibly sourced precious metals from trusted suppliers.
• Natural and laboratory-grown diamond options available.
• Conflict-free diamonds sourced through reputable supply chains.
• Carefully selected gemstones sourced from specialist suppliers around the world.
• Every memorial handcrafted in our Worthing and Birmingham workshops.

We carefully choose every material for its quality, beauty and durability, so your memorial can be treasured for generations.

There is no right or wrong choice. The best ashes necklace is simply the one that feels most meaningful to you and suits how you would like to wear it.

• Choose from subtle everyday pendants through to more decorative diamond, gemstone and fused glass designs.
• Think about the size and shape of pendant you normally feel comfortable wearing.
• Decide whether you would like the ashes to be visible or completely discreet.
• Choose from sterling silver, 9ct or 18ct gold, and platinum.
• Consider engraving or other personal details to make your necklace even more meaningful.

Yes. Our memorial necklaces can be created using a small amount of ashes or hair.

If you would like the ashes to be visible, our fused glass ashes gemstones incorporate a small amount of ashes into kiln-fired glass. If you prefer something more discreet, our hidden chamber designs securely contain ashes or hair within the precious metal itself.

Both options are completely resin-free and handcrafted in our UK workshops.

Every ashes pendant comes with our fine chain as standard, made in the same precious metal you choose for your pendant. Where alternative chain lengths or upgraded chain styles are available, you can select them from the options on the individual product page.

The right chain can change both how your necklace looks and where the pendant sits, so it is worth considering how you would like to wear your memorial.

• A shorter chain keeps the pendant higher on the chest and closer to the neckline.
• A longer chain allows the pendant to sit lower and can work particularly well with different necklines.
• Different chain styles can give the same pendant a more delicate or substantial appearance.

If you're unsure which option will work best with your chosen pendant, our team will be happy to help.

Our ashes necklaces are available in a wide choice of precious metals, gemstones and finishes, allowing you to create something that feels completely personal.

• Sterling silver, 9ct and 18ct gold, and platinum.
• Yellow, white and rose gold options.
• Natural and laboratory-grown diamonds.
• Birthstones and coloured gemstones.
• Our handcrafted fused glass ashes gemstones in a choice of colours.

Available options vary between designs, and our team can help you compare them before ordering.

Many of our ashes necklaces can be personalised to make them even more meaningful. The options available depend on the individual design.

• Names, initials, dates and short personal messages.
• Fingerprints, handwriting and paw prints where suitable.
• Birthstones, diamonds or other meaningful gemstones.
• Symbols, artwork and bespoke engraving.
• Completely bespoke necklaces through our Custom Design Service.

If you have something particular in mind, speak to us and we'll let you know what is possible.

Absolutely. You don’t need to make the decision alone. Our experienced team can help you compare pendant designs, sizes, precious metals, gemstones, glass colours, chain options and personalisation without any pressure to order.
