Couples may want to find matching jewellery to commemorate the loss of a loved one. This simple gesture will not only help with the grieving process for both parties, but it also helps to forge a link between the couple, forever connected in their grief.

Opting for matching couple's jewellery doesn't have to mean choosing the same thing. In fact, there’s something quite lovely about choosing something similar but slightly different. Read on to learn some of our favourite jewellery pairings for couples looking for matching memorial jewellery following the loss of a loved one.

Earrings and cufflinks

A hugely popular option for couples looking for a memorial jewellery pairing would be earrings and cufflinks. These are ideal for including the memory of the individual in a special day like your wedding. You wouldn’t wear these items all the time, but they can bring a great deal of comfort in moments of need. Match the metal colour and choose the same gemstone or inscription to make this couple’s memorial jewellery option truly unique.

Matching rings

Rings are a versatile choice for memorial keepsakes as there are so many options available. This could include plain bands, or rings with diamond settings. You can also add an inscription to further personalise the piece. When choosing a ring, this would be more common for a piece of everyday jewellery. You could also opt to use these as your wedding rings if you want to honour someone who could no longer be there.

Forever bracelets

Couples might also consider these simple and sleek bracelets that are attached to the wrist without a clasp, which means you’ll wear them forever. They are designed to be durable and low profile, so you’ll barely even notice you’re wearing it most days. This can be a popular choice if you want to pay tribute to a loved one with a lasting memorial.

Dog tag pendants

Another popular choice for a couple’s memorial tribute would be to have matching dog tag pendants. These would be popular to commemorate someone lost in the line of duty. Dog tags offer a large space for customising the jewellery with an inscription. They’re also highly durable and low profile, as they can be worn discreetly under clothing, so they don’t have to be visible.

Brooch and tie slide

Another popular matching option would be to coordinate a brooch with a tie slide. This would be a beautiful gift for a special occasion like a wedding day or anniversary. These are special items that will only be brought out on very important occasions, which brings a sense of importance to the memorial piece. By choosing matching metals and the same inscription on both, you can enhance the sense of unity between the two pieces.

As you can see, there are lots of ways to create matching jewellery collections for couples that will allow them to wear something unique that is united by a common sense of grief.
