Ashes to Jewellery – Beautiful Memorials You Can Hold Close
Transforming ashes to jewellery is a deeply personal way to remember and honour a loved one. At Evermore Glass, based in the artistic heart of St Ives, Cornwall, we handcraft bespoke glass memorial jewellery that preserves cremation ashes in elegant, wearable designs. Our pieces are more than just ornaments—they’re timeless tributes that carry love and memory.
What Is Ashes to Jewellery?
Ashes to jewellery is the process of embedding a small amount of cremated ash into molten glass. Once cooled and shaped, this glass becomes part of a piece of jewellery, such as a pendant, charm, or set of earrings. The ashes are visible as delicate patterns within the coloured glass, each one unique and meaningful.
A Tangible Expression of Remembrance
While photos and keepsakes offer comfort, ashes jewellery allows you to carry that connection with you. It brings emotional reassurance, particularly in moments when you long to feel close to someone who has passed.
Why Choose Evermore Glass?
Handmade in Cornwall by a Dedicated Artist
Every item is created by Sally Carver, a skilled lampwork glass artist with over 15 years of experience. Sally established Evermore Glass in 2008 to provide compassionate, personalised memorials using traditional glassmaking techniques and high-quality materials.
