Settings: 3 x 5mm
All dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly with every casting.
The back of each setting on this piece can accommodate a single character engraving, please reach out to me for questions about this. Examples of the font options available for engraving can be seen here. If you have any engraving-related questions, please submit your inquiry in the contact form below or send us an email.
Cousins to this design, we carry versions of this piece with either two or three settings in sterling silver and all colors of 14k gold.
Please Note: This ring can be made with multiple sets of ashes, which may produce differently colored settings (as shown) but this is not guaranteed. No color is added to the ashes during the setting process to create a specific color or hue. If this ring is made with only one set of ashes, the same color will be produced across all of the settings. Our Multi-Setting Collection lists all of the pieces that can accommodate separately set ashes.
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.

Best experience
My dog was a huge part of my life for 15 years. I heard of people using ashes to make personal items to remember their loved ones. With all the options, I really had no idea where to go. I came across Close By Me after doing a web-search. All the reviews were fantastic so I reached out to the shop. Gina was the absolute best. She guided me along step by step and kept me informed throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to use Close By Me in the future. The process was seamless and I received my ring back sooner that I anticipated. Her pieces are presented beautifully. Close By Me showed professionalism and customer care beyond measure.
Beautiful ring!
I had this ring made in memory of my dog Bella. Losing her is the hardest thing I’ve been through so far in my life so I was very careful in what I selected to commemorate her. This ring is absolutely beautiful and looks extremely feminine on my hand. I absolutely love it! The constant contact that Gina, the store owner, had with me was amazing. You can tell she truly cares about each piece that she makes and cares about the people she is making the piece for. I highly recommend Close By Me and Gina. She kept my heart full through this process. Thank you!
Second Ring
I loved my first ring so much I decided to do one with 4 of my dogs on it. It is beautiful! I felt this was a better use of cremations than looking at wooden boxes. I can now scatter the remaining ashes in the yard and still have a piece of them with me. Thank you Gina!
Memorial rings
My sister and I got memorial rings for our sister Rachel. Both pieces were so beautiful and attention to detail was incredible. The customer service was above and beyond all expectations!! Highly recommended!
Beyond Beautiful!
Gina is absolutely the most kind hearted person I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is so invested in her work and truly cares about her clients. I ordered this ring to memorialize my mom and it is more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. There aren't enough words to truly describe how beautiful it is. I am so thankful for Gina and her beautiful creations.
