Golden memorial ashes charm 'Ball'

Gold that stays with you, like the bond you shared

When you want to keep someone close in a way that feels real and everyday, an ashes charm is a considered, tangible choice. Not a replacement for who you miss, but something you can carry with you through ordinary life.

Handcrafted by skilled goldsmiths

This charm is made from 14-carat gold by experienced goldsmiths. Gold demands precision at every stage of working, and that level of craft shows clearly in the finished piece. The round form is balanced and understated, present without drawing attention to itself. It can be worn on a necklace or charm bracelet, sitting alongside jewellery you already own.

A small amount of ashes, safely held

Inside the charm is a small compartment designed to hold a portion of cremation ashes or a little soil from the grave. The charm unscrews so you can fill it yourself, and a digital filling guide is included with your order, walking you through each step including how to seal it securely. If you would prefer not to do this yourself, a family member, crematorium or funeral director can help, though it is worth being aware that a charge is usually involved. Please note that the compartment is not large enough to hold a lock of hair.

Practical and lasting: what to expect from 14-carat gold

14-carat gold stands up well to daily wear. It does not discolour with skin contact or moisture, holds its colour and lustre with ordinary care, and you should not see any deterioration in the finish through regular use. No special precautions are needed.

Made to your wishes

The clean, spherical shape of this charm carries a quiet meaning that many people recognise instinctively: something unbroken, something that does not end. It is not a symbolism imposed on the piece; it is simply what a circle suggests, and for a great many people that is precisely right. If you would like an ashes charm made to a specific idea or personal brief, we are happy to work with you on a design that fits exactly what you have in mind.
