Is there cremation jewelry that can also be religious? The answer is yes, there are many different types of jewelry that are religious based such as crosses, rosaries and other sorts of cremation jewelry that would fit into this category. Let’s take a look at rosaries for example first. Our standard rosary is the size of a typical rosary with beautiful beads at the Stations.
At the end there is a gold cross that can be filled with about 1 teaspoon of ashes. The cross itself measures 1” W X 1 ½ H and is a beautiful gold color. Another example is the freshwater pearl rosary. This is a standard size rosary and is made of freshwater pearls. This cross is 1”w by 1/12” tall and holds one teaspoon of ashes in the cross itself. Rosaries of this sort are considered to be the most personal cremation jewelry items available. There are also other religious keepsakes such as the Angel necklace keepsake.
This particular pendant is created out of sterling silver and is created one at a time. No two are alike. This keepsake is 1” wide by 1 ¼ inches high and has the capacity to hold ½ to 1 teaspoon of ashes. This comes with a matching 20” sterling silver chain. Another item of note would be the Classic cross style of cremation jewelry. This pendant is created out of either 14K gold or sterling silver. And is hand created by artisans, one at a time. This cross pendant measures 7/8 width by 1 5/8 inches high and holds ½ to 1 teaspoon of ashes.
This pendant can also be engraved for personalization. We take great pride in our ability to engrave on our jewelry. This is highly personalized for the passed individual and is not always on option at funeral homes and websites. View our urns for ashes to see our custom cremation urns. Here is another example of Cross jewelry for cremation remains. This cross is gold plated and measures 1” w by 1 ½ inches high and holds ½ to 1 teaspoon of ashes. As you can see, there are many different religious types of memorial jewelry that is available for purchase. There are also other symbols that can be considered religious such as the infinity symbol, a Coptic cross or other symbols, that while not overtly religious, can be used in much the same fashion.

Urn Jewelry and Losing a Loved One

Jewelry Urns are cremation pendants that carry ashes or a memento of some type (hair or crushed flowers). Usually the whole of the ashes of a passed loved one will not be spread across several cremation necklaces. The reason for this is because the remains of a cremated person are quite large and generally will result in a cubic square inch per pound of weight, before the person passed. In other words, if a person weighed 150 pounds when they died, their ashes would be about 150 square inches. And most necklace urns are barely one cubic inch. Often there will be either a scattering of the remains or they will be kept. So necklaces will constitute only a portion of the ashes and the rest must be considered.

Cremation jewelry doesn’t always have to carry ashes. Often times people will carry a lock of hair or a flower from the ceremony. This is particularly good for people that do not feel comfortable with the concept of carrying cremains with them.

Cremation urn necklaces are at the heart of humanity and our love for people. Some of those who have lost a loved one, from the beginning of the cremation process, have considered, if not demanded that they keep a bit of the remains. The cremation jewelry market has evolved quite a bit, to provide thousands of pendants, necklaces, lockets and other jewelry, to memorialize a loved one. It has become a hugely important aspect and option in losing a loved one.

Larger cremation urns are more popular than jewelry. In America today families would prefer to keep their loved one’s remains together. And carrying cremains with you may not be palatable for some people. Nonetheless, urn necklaces and pendants have become a wonderful compliment to the traditional urn at home or in the ground concepts.

There are many different materials and styles of urn necklaces. Generally some of the most popular are in the shapes of crosses or hearts. Generally gold and silver, the more traditional jewelry materials, are more common than glass or wood. The blue cobalt glass keepsakes have seen a rise in popularity within the past 10 years. These keepsakes have a metal mold atop blue glass. Wood urn necklaces are also quite popular; perhaps because they are similar to the earth and a natural approach to preserving a loved one’s remains. Also cremation bracelets are popular.

Most cremation jewelry is designed to be worn, but necessity is the mother of invention. Today, you can purchase keychain keepsakes. Though this may be considered, by some, to be a disrespectful and trivial approach to memorializing a loved one, but the concept is quite practical. A loved ones cremains can always be with you, without the burden of a necklace or bracelet. This makes good sense and we encourage those looking for cremation jewelry to consider all their options, including key chains.

One option that we have seen is during the ceremony, the family leaves the urn out in the open, where they can have a scoop of the passed ashes and take them away. This may be particularly good in a situation, where the person wants to be remembered by everyone. If the funeral is being pre-planned, this is a great concept to bring up. Some people feel particular comfort in knowing that they are with the people they love.

Trust is very important when dealing with a passed loved one. We strongly encourage that you research the funeral home or crematorium you are working with and be sure they are reputable. Your local clergy may have useful information regarding the organization you are working with. Friends and acquaintances also may have past experiences with the funeral home or crematorium. It’s useful to know if the crematory has refrigeration and is inspected within a reasonable amount of time. You may also inquire as to the training of the individuals on staff as well carrying liability insurance. This will give you peace of mind with the final steps in memorializing your loved one. If your funeral home or crematorium is difficult to work with or refuses to answer these important questions, we suggest that you find another. The process of losing a loved is very difficult for people and some in the industry forget how important their job really is.

Jewelry Urns takes great pride in our work. This document has been written by us and attempts to shed light on the cremation keepsake and the options that families have for remembering their loved one.
