Many families choose traditional methods of final disposition for cremated remains. Interment in a cemetery or columbarium, or even keeping the remains in the home in a decorative urn, are common methods of final disposition. However, families who are looking for a creative and beautiful alternative for final disposition may enjoy cremation jewelry. Cremation jewelry provides a unique method of carrying a constant reminder of the lost loved one, as well as a way to ensure that multiple individuals can feel close to the deceased.

Cremation Jewelry Provides a Flexible Disposition Option

One of the downsides of cemetery interment, or even keeping the remains in an urn in the family home, is that it may not be convenient for multiple family members to visit with the deceased. Cemetery interment, for example, poses challenges for family members who live across the country or relocate away from the area. Keeping an urn in the home causes similar challenges; people who don’t live nearby can’t visit with the deceased on a regular basis. Even worse, though, when it comes to keeping the remains in the home; multiple family members may want to house the remains, and may feel hurt or jealous that only one family can keep the family member nearby.

Cremation jewelry solves all of those issues. In most types of cremation jewelry, only a small amount of remains are used, so multiple family members may have a necklace or ring that reminds them of the deceased. This is a great way for family members across the country to feel like husband, father, brother or uncle is nearby – all without feeling hurt or excluded by final disposition.

Cremation Jewelry is a Beautiful and Unique Final Disposition Option

Beyond the practical value, cremation jewelry offers families a beautiful and unique option to memorialize the lost loved one. Cremation jewelry comes in several forms, including:
Cremation jewelry designed to hold cremated remains: this type of cremation jewelry often comes in the form of a locket or cylinder, and physically holds a small amount of cremated remains so the family member can always feel that the loved one is nearby remains set in clear jewelry: some newer cremation jewelry actually incorporates the cremated remains into a clear substance to create beautiful and unique jewelry options; this type of cremation jewelry typically ranges in color from light beige to black, and can be set into a variety of styles to create earrings, cufflinks, charms, rings or pendants Memorial diamonds and gems: another way of memorializing a loved one is through turning the cremated remains into memorial diamonds or gems, using a special process to synthesize the stones from the remains.

Families who want to memorialize a loved one through cremation jewelry enjoy a wide range of options. Creating cremation jewelry offers a flexible and beautiful way to memorialize a lost loved one, and to ensure that multiple family members will always feel that their loved one is nearby.
