From the very beginning of creating our clothing keepsake jewellery range, we meticulously tested various materials, comparing glass and resin to ensure the highest quality for our pieces. Resin quickly stood out as the superior choice. Unlike glass, which is prone to chipping, cracking, or breaking, resin offers exceptional strength and durability. It also resists fading and discolouration, ensuring your jewellery remains as vibrant and meaningful as the memories it represents. That’s why every piece in our clothing keepsake jewellery collection is crafted with resin—to provide a lasting and reliable tribute to your loved one.

At Memories Made, our clothing keepsake jewellery is designed to be truly unique, with a striking appearance that sets it apart from traditional keepsake jewellery. We aim to create jewellery that highlights the beauty and significance of your loved one's clothing, preserving its essence in a meaningful way. Unlike other companies that may simply insert the fabric into the design, we take a more thoughtful approach. Each piece is crafted with exceptional care as we carefully select, cut, and arrange the fabric to fit the jewellery perfectly. This meticulous process allows the clothing to complement the elegance of the design, creating a truly stunning and heartfelt tribute.

We are committed to complete transparency, which is why every order is carefully recorded and shared on our social media pages. This allows you to see your piece being lovingly crafted, offering you a glimpse into the process and making us one of the most transparent memorial companies in the world. The clothing is always beautifully visible in the finished piece, thoughtfully positioned to enhance the overall design and ensure a harmonious and meaningful tribute to your loved one.

Additionally, all of our sterling silver items are plated in rhodium, a premium material with several benefits. Rhodium enhances the durability of your jewellery, making it more resistant to scratches and tarnishing. It also gives the silver a stunning, reflective finish that maintains its brilliance over time. This extra layer of protection ensures your jewellery remains as beautiful and timeless as the memories it holds.

At Memories Made, every detail is designed with care and precision, ensuring your piece is crafted to the highest standards of quality and beauty.

As part of your order, you’ll receive a free ring sizing kit along with your clothing kit. The ring sizing kit includes an easy-to-use ring sizer that you can place over your desired finger to determine the perfect fit. Simply complete the supplied ring sizing form with your measurements and return it to us along with the clothing using the free prepaid tracked returns label. Just drop it into any Royal Mail red post box, and it will be safely delivered to us. This ensures your ring is crafted to fit you perfectly.

Please note that not all jewellers use the same ring dimensions we do, so we highly recommend using our ring sizer for the most accurate fit. Once our keepsake rings are created, they cannot be resized without compromising the securely set clothing piece inside. Using our ring sizer ensures your jewellery is crafted to meet your exact needs while preserving the integrity of this meaningful keepsake.

Once you place your order, we will send you a free clothing kit, which includes a resealable bag for securely placing the clothing inside. For each piece of clothing keepsake jewellery, we only need a few small fabric pieces, roughly the size of your thumb.

Yes, we absolutely can. We create keepsakes using items that hold sentimental value to you. Examples include sand from a beach where cherished memories were made, fabric from a loved one’s clothing, or even locks of hair to incorporate into the jewellery.

We’ve also had the honour of crafting keepsakes for deeply personal moments, such as incorporating fragments of pregnancy tests to memorialise a miscarriage. These meaningful items are treated with the utmost care and respect, ensuring the final piece is as special as the memories it represents.

Sometimes, customers don’t have any physical items to include, and that’s perfectly okay. In these cases, we can create a keepsake using resin, coloured to match a loved one’s birthstone or their favourite colour as a way to remember them.

The process is almost identical to our ashes jewellery. Once your order is placed, we send you a collection kit. If you’re providing inclusions such as hair or fabric, simply place them in the kit following the instructions. If you’d prefer a resin keepsake, let us know your chosen colour, and we’ll lovingly craft a piece that honours your memories beautifully.

Memorial jewellery starts at £149. This cost reflects the use of precious metals in crafting each piece, as well as the significant time, skill, and care required to create it. While our social media videos may give the impression that each piece takes only a few minutes to make, this is far from reality. The videos are heavily edited to keep them short and engaging for viewers, meaning most of the intricate and detailed work is removed from the final cut.

Creating clothing keepsake jewellery is a meticulous process that demands precision and care. Beyond the delicate process of incorporating the hair of our loved ones, we also engrave many pieces with personalised details and polish them to a mirror finish to ensure they shine with elegance. Each step requires a steady hand and an immense amount of patience to achieve perfection. If anything isn’t flawless, we simply won’t send it.

This dedication ensures that every piece we create not only honours the memory of your loved one but also serves as a beautiful and lasting tribute. It’s this commitment to quality and craftsmanship that makes each piece truly special.

Yes, absolutely. We can use pet hair to create beautiful and meaningful jewellery. Pets are such an incredibly special part of our lives, offering unconditional love, companionship, and countless cherished memories. Sadly, their time with us is far too short, but their impact on our hearts lasts a lifetime.

Their clothing, such as a jacket they would wear when being walked, or their collar, can be incorporated into a design of your choice.

We’re truly honoured to help preserve the bond between you and your beloved pet in a piece of jewellery that reflects their irreplaceable role in your life.

Yes, we can create jewellery using white gold, 9ct gold, or higher purity gold such as 18ct. Once we receive your ashes, the process takes approximately 5–6 weeks to complete. This timeframe allows us to carefully craft your piece and have it hallmarked at the Assay Office.

Hallmarking is not only a legal requirement but also a guarantee of quality and authenticity. It ensures that your jewellery has been made with the correct purity of solid gold, giving you complete peace of mind that your piece is genuine. The combination of precious metals and our meticulous craftsmanship results in a beautiful and meaningful keepsake that you can treasure forever.

Although we don’t currently have readily available listings on our website for purities higher than 9ct, or the ability to purchase white or rose gold directly, we can certainly accommodate these requests. Simply send us an email at enquiries@memoriesmade.co.uk, and we’ll be more than happy to assist you in creating your perfect piece.

Yes, we can incorporate both clothing and ashes into a single piece, creating a truly meaningful and unique keepsake. Both elements will be beautifully visible, carefully arranged to complement one another while preserving their individual significance. We take great care to ensure the design is elegant and durable, allowing the piece to serve as a lasting tribute to your loved one. If you have specific preferences for how the clothing and ashes are displayed, we’d be happy to discuss and customise the design to make it perfect for you.
