This
fanciful series of cremation keepsakes has been assembled to
provide you with beautiful options for memorializing your loved one with
a mini urn, cremation jewelry pendant, or cremation keepsake memento
that befits their unique style and enduring spirit. As funeral
traditions evolve, many families are opting to keep a small portion of
the ashes in a keepsake urn. The small keepsake cremation urns that we offer
in this category are meant to give you a range of beautiful choices for
finding a vessel that truly reflects the personality of your loved
one.
Partial containment of the cremains in a keepsake sized urn
is suitable for various situations. If, for example, the family decides
upon a full sized cremation urn to 'inurn' into a columbarium niche at a
cemetery, in a funeral home, or in a growing number of churches, it can
be comforting to retain a small amount of the cremated remains in a
keepsake, to be kept at home. Or, when family members live at great
distances from one another, they might wish to divide the ashes among,
for example, a full sized urn for the surviving spouse, and a number of small keepsake urns, such as keepsake mini urns or sphere urns for the children. Another potential alternative is to select one or several small solid glass keepsake hearts
which match the full sized urn or mini urns - these keepsake hearts
contain no ashes, and may be laser engraved on the back with name and
dates. These solid glass keepsake hearts can be particularly appropriate
for young children, because they contain no ashes, and can be held in
the palm of one's hand as a small lifelong heirloom memento for moments
of quiet remembrance. Or, in the case where a scattering ceremony is the
chosen method for commemorating the loved one and committing the
cremains in a meaningful location, family members may wish to keep a
small portion of the ashes in one or more mini urns or spheres. It is
worth mentioning that, if the family chooses a scattering ceremony for
disposition of the ashes, one family member or a close friend should be
assigned to ensure that the chosen location allows scattering.
Cremation keepsake jewelry
is yet another meaningful avenue for containing a small amount of the
ashes, to be worn close to the heart. Our full line of sterling silver
urn jewelry for men and women can be found on our Cremation Jewelry
page. These wearable memorials are cast in solid 925 sterling silver,
and are hollow for containing a small pinch of ashes sealed within. Each
cremation urn pendant comes with a tiny funnel which fits into the
opening of the urn vessel for ease of transferring the ashes, before
permanently sealing the top in place with the provided sealant.
We
hope to be of help to your family by offering this selection of
distinctive and beautiful cremation keepsakes. We
believe in healing through beauty, and we sincerely hope you will find
comfort in the uplifting artistry of these remarkable small keepsake
cremation urns.
