Cremation Jewelry Explained: What It Is + How to Create Your Own
Cremation Jewelry offers a deeply personal way to keep your Loved One close—every day, everywhere. Whether you’re honoring a life well lived or finding comfort after loss, these meaningful pieces turn remembrance into something you can hold onto.
What is Cremation Jewelry?
Cremation Jewelry is Memorial Jewelry designed to hold a small portion of cremated remains. These pieces are crafted to be both beautiful and discreet, allowing you to carry your Loved One with you in a way that feels natural and comforting.
The most popular style of Cremation Jewelry is the Urn Pendant, which allows you to keep your Loved One physically close to your heart.
At Legacy Touch, your Urn Pendant can be personalized with your Loved One’s fingerprint, a Birthstone or other Gemstone, and an inscription—adding layers of meaning to your Keepsake.
How to Create Cremation Jewelry
Creating Cremation Jewelry can feel like an emotional step—but it can also be a meaningful part of honoring your Loved One. At Legacy Touch, we’ve made the process simple and supportive, so you can design a piece that reflects your story, your connection, and the life you’re remembering.
Step 1: Choose Your Jewelry Style
Start by selecting the style of Urn Pendant that feels most meaningful to you. Choose from our classic Sterling Silver Urn Pendants or our Gemstone Urn Pendants, which offer a more subtle way to remember your Loved One.
Step 2: Add Your Loved One’s Fingerprint
Once you’ve selected your Jewelry, you can enter your Loved One’s PIN, which identifies their unique fingerprints in our secure database. When you do, your Loved One’s first name and last initial will appear for verification.
If you don’t already have a Legacy Touch PIN, you can easily upload photos of the desired fingerprints to create one in seconds. Keep in mind that the funeral home who cared for your family member may have already taken prints and created a PIN for you—you can reach out to them to check.
Step 3: Personalize Your Keepsake
One way to make your Cremation Jewelry even more meaningful is by adding custom touches that reflect your Loved One, such as:
- Engraved inscriptions
- Symbolic charms
- Birthstone charms
These details transform your piece into something truly one-of-a-kind that tells your Loved One’s story.
Step 4: Select Your Production Speed
Most Cremation Jewelry from Legacy Touch is made and delivered within one week. However, we know that grief doesn’t have a timeline. Sometimes, you want comfort a little faster.
With Express Production, you can choose to have your Urn Pendant delivered as quickly as the next business day. This is especially meaningful for those who want to carry a reminder of their Loved One close during memorial services or other important occasions.
Step 5: Fill Your Urn Pendant
Once you receive your Cremation Jewelry, you can fill it with a portion of your Loved One’s cremated remains. Many funeral homes will offer to do this for you, or you can do it yourself at home by following our simple instructions.
After it’s secured, your Cremation Jewelry will be ready to wear, providing you comfort for years to come.
