Ashes Bracelet – A Unique Way to Honour a Loved One
An ashes bracelet offers a beautiful and wearable way to remember someone you’ve lost. At Evermore Glass in St Ives, Cornwall, we craft elegant glass charm beads made using your loved one’s cremation ashes. These beads are fitted to bracelet styles like Pandora, allowing you to carry memory and meaning wherever you go.
What Is an Ashes Bracelet?
An ashes bracelet is a piece of jewellery that features one or more handcrafted beads containing cremation ash. These beads are created using specialist lampwork techniques, where molten glass is infused with a tiny amount of ash, then kiln-annealed for strength and clarity.
Each bead becomes a treasured keepsake—an ever-present tribute that honours life, love and legacy.
The Comfort of Wearing Memory
For many people, the tactile nature of wearing a bracelet brings a comforting physical connection. Whether worn every day or saved for special moments, an ashes bracelet is a deeply personal reminder that your loved one is always close.
