Setting: 7mm
All dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly with every casting.
The back of the setting on this ring can accommodate a maximum of 3 characters, including spaces and simple symbols. Examples of the font options available for engraving can be seen here. If you have any engraving-related questions or want to verify if your desired phrase will work, please submit your inquiry in the contact form below or send us an email.
In addition to this ring's cousin, featuring a dainty square setting, we also carry a pendant version of this design in .925 sterling silver and all colors of 14k gold.
Each piece is set in our office, located in Southern California. Only a very small amount of ashes is used in the setting process; the exact amount needed depends on the size and depth of the piece's setting, but for simplicity's sake, a teaspoon of ashes will suffice for most orders. The setting process solidifies the ashes and brings out their natural color, which may differ from those in the piece photographed. Within 1 business day of placing your order, you will receive a detailed order confirmation with information and instructions relevant to your unique order.

Can I put the ashes in myself or have my local funeral home do it?
Our cremation jewelry is crafted using a patented process that solidifies the ashes and bonds them directly to the metal. Because of this unique method, our pieces must be completed in our studio and cannot be done at home or by a funeral home. This ensures your memorial jewelry is durable, long-lasting, and made exactly as intended.
Is it okay to wear my cremation jewelry in the shower, pool, or ocean?
We do not recommend wearing your cremation jewelry in the pool or ocean, as chlorine and saltwater can be damaging to the ashes setting and metal.
You may wear your piece in the shower, but keep in mind the minerals and chemicals present in many skincare products can discolor or mattify the ashes setting. While it's best to remove your cremation jewelry before showering, if you do choose to leave it on, we recommend rinsing it thoroughly and drying it afterward to prevent any residue buildup.
All of our cremation jewelry comes with a lifetime warranty for the ashes setting. If the setting ever becomes dull, discolored, or damaged, you can send it back to us to be restored or redone. There is no fee for this service; we only ask that you cover the shipping costs.
Can I wear my cremation jewelry every day?
Yes, absolutely! Our cremation jewelry is created to be worn as often as you’d like — whether that's every day, on special occasions, or anything in between.
That said, it is still fine jewelry, so a bit of mindful care will help preserve its beauty over time. We recommend removing your piece before activities that may involve physical impact or contact with chemicals, such as exercising, swimming, gardening, or cleaning. This helps protect both the metal and the ashes setting.

Will the color of the ashes setting match the one pictured?
Ashes are like fingerprints: entirely unique to your loved one. No color is added to the ashes during the setting process, so the finished jewelry will reflect their natural hue, which may differ from those photographed.
Can I send something other than or in addition to ashes, such as hair, breastmilk, or another sentimental material?
Yes! We are happy to accept a variety of other materials, including but not limited to: hair/fur, sand, soil, powdered breastmilk, dried flower petals, fabric, crushed gemstones, and more. Please reach out to discuss your unique memorial setting.

Thank you for what you do
I just opened my package and it’s absolutely perfect. So many times we get let down from shopping online and not knowing what to expect especially with something like this that I didn’t even know existed until now. I wish I didn’t need to order this but I’m so glad that it was a “thing” to order. When I was searching for crematory pieces I never imagined I would find something so personal, simple and beautiful. Thank you again and again for what you create and the special care you put into the the jewelry AND the person you are doing it for. Gina’s service is amazing. From the day I ordered then the process throughout and the final piece. My son was in great hands the whole time.
I just received my Max back. It is beautiful and well crafted. I know I will love it forever. Thank you.
Perfect gift to myself
Gina was really helpful with my purchase, and took great care of my dog's ashes. I am really happy with the product and was so surprised that there was a charm also made with his ashes. I am so glad I can have my dog with me wherever I go.
Beautiful ring
My experience with Gina was amazing to say the least. She was very informative about what she needed from me, let me know when my loved ones ashes were recieved, and also let me know when the peice had been shipped out with shipping info! She was absolutely wonderful to work with and the ring came out absolutely stunning. I am in love with her work and woukd 100% recommend her to anyone. She's a great communicator so if you had any questions she is there for you. That was one of the greatest parts. I can't thank her enough. 5 stars
Amazing, amazing, amazing
Gina and her team were absolutely wonderful to work with. I am so pleased with my pieces. It was the perfect gift for my parents. I had lost my sister this year and wanted to give my parents a heartwarming gift this holiday season to memoralize our girl. The entire process was so smooth and Gina was in touch with me throughout the whole time. I knew Raine's ashes were in safe hands and I am so appreciative of the care and attention the team gave to these pieces. Truly, so special.
