Stainless steel ashes pendant

A quiet connection you can carry with you

Sometimes it helps to keep a person close in a way that is physical, not just remembered. An ashes pendant makes that possible: a small, sealed space for a pinch of ashes, a lock of hair, or a little soil from the grave, worn against you every day.

Made from surgical-grade stainless steel

This ashes pendant is made from 316-grade stainless steel, the same specification used in medical instruments and marine engineering. The choice of grade is deliberate. 316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which gives it resistance to corrosion and means it will not oxidise or discolour against the skin. The silver-toned finish holds its appearance through daily wear, year after year.

What the pendant holds

Inside the pendant is a sealed chamber sized for a small amount of ashes, a lock of hair, or a little soil from the grave. A step-by-step instruction guide is included, which takes you through filling and sealing the pendant carefully at home. If you would prefer not to do this yourself, a crematorium or funeral director can usually assist, though their own charges will apply. The pendant is supplied without a chain.

What this piece can mean

You are not simply choosing a piece of jewellery. You are choosing something that represents the bond you shared, a bond that does not end. The pendant is small enough for everyday wear, discreet in the way it sits, but the significance it carries is not small at all.

Practical reassurance on material and care

316 stainless steel is not fragile in the way ceramic or glass can be. It will not mark or discolour with moisture or contact with skin. There is no need to remove it before washing, store it specially, or treat it with care it does not require. It is simply there, doing its job reliably.

Personalisation

If you would like to make the pendant more personal, engraving is available. An initial, a date, or a word that means something particular to you can be added, making this a piece that belongs entirely to your own remembrance.

If you have questions about the filling process, which chain might work well with this pendant, or anything else, we are happy to help you think it through at your own pace.
