After placing your order, we’ll send you a free ashes collection kit, which includes simple instructions, a pre-paid returns label, a small scoop for measuring the tiny amount needed (less than a teaspoon), and a secure container to safely hold the ashes. Once we receive them, we’ll begin crafting your jewellery with care, and any unused ashes will be respectfully returned with your finished piece.
We understand how important your jewellery is, which is why all orders are shipped fully tracked to ensure they are handled safely from start to finish. Your piece will be securely packaged to protect it during transit, giving you peace of mind every step of the way.
Each piece is handmade and unique, so while we match your chosen colour and style, natural variations may occur. The photos shown are all pieces we have made, and we will ensure your jewellery looks as close as possible to them. The way the ashes settle creates a one-of-a-kind pattern, making every piece special.
Our engraving is done using a state-of-the-art diamond tip engraving machine, ensuring a beautiful, shiny finish. You can personalise your jewellery with names, dates, initials, or a short message, depending on the space available. If you’d like to see a draft before engraving, just send us an email or mention it in your order notes at checkout, and we’ll be happy to provide one upon request.

Yes, we ship worldwide! However, for international orders, you are responsible for sending the ashes to us. Once you place your order, please email us at enquiries@memoriesmade.co.uk to request our postal address. We recommend using a tracked service to ensure the ashes arrive safely. Any unused ashes will be returned with your finished jewellery.
To keep your jewellery in the best condition, we provide detailed care instructions with every order. We recommend removing your jewellery before bathing, exercising, or handling cleaning products to minimise wear. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight and UV rays, as well as direct contact with perfumes, lotions, or household chemicals.
All of our sterling silver pieces are plated with rhodium, giving them a brilliant shine similar to white gold while also providing protection against tarnishing and daily exposure. However, we still recommend following these care instructions to ensure your jewellery stays beautiful for years to come. For storage, keep your piece in its original box, separate from other jewellery, in a cool, dry place, and regularly check any clasps or settings to maintain durability.
All of this information is also available in the care instructions that arrive with your order.
Are the Ashes placed into glass or resin?
From the very beginning of creating our ashes 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 that your jewellery remains as beautiful as the memories it represents. That’s why every piece in our ashes jewellery collection is crafted with resin—to provide a lasting, reliable tribute to your loved one.
How is your Cremation Jewellery different from other companies?
At Memories Made, our cremation ashes jewellery is designed to be truly unique, with a striking appearance that sets it apart from traditional ashes jewellery. We set out to create jewellery that highlights the beauty and significance of your loved one's ashes, making them appear gently suspended within the piece. Unlike other companies that simply pour the ashes into the design, we take a more thoughtful approach. Each piece is crafted with exceptional care, as we carefully select and place the ashes, choosing primarily the brightest white fragments to ensure they shine through the resin. This meticulous process allows the ashes to complement the elegance of the jewellery itself, creating a truly stunning and meaningful 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 witness your piece being lovingly crafted, offering you a window into the process and making us one of the most transparent memorial companies in the world.
The ashes are always visible in the finished piece, carefully positioned and evenly spaced to enhance the beauty of the design. This thoughtful placement ensures the ashes are seamlessly integrated into the jewellery, creating a harmonious and meaningful tribute to your loved one.
Additionally, all of our sterling silver items are plated in rhodium, a premium material that provides 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, ensuring your piece is crafted to the highest standards of quality and beauty.
How Much Ash Is Needed for Each Piece?
We only require a small amount of ashes to create your jewellery. With the Ashes Kit we send, you’ll receive a small scoop to measure the ashes. Generally, one teaspoon is enough to make up to six pieces, so only a tiny portion is needed.
What Happens to Any Remaining Ashes?
Any ashes that are not used in your jewellery will be carefully returned to you along with your finished piece.
Can Ashes from Two Loved Ones Be Combined?
Yes. Many customers ask us to incorporate ashes from two or more individuals into a single piece, and we are happy to accommodate this. Some prefer the ashes to be mixed together, while others request they be kept separate. If you would like them to remain separate, please let us know when ordering, and we can provide multiple containers to keep them apart before they are added to your jewellery.
Will the Ashes Be Visible in the Jewellery?
Yes, we embed the ashes above the colour you choose so that they remain visible in the design. We carefully select only white ash from what you send us to ensure a more visually refined look. Additionally, we use only specific grain sizes, avoiding large fragments to achieve a delicate, elegant appearance as shown in our product photos. This ensures that the ashes are present in a way that is both meaningful and aesthetically beautiful.
How can I be sure of my ring size?
As part of your order, you’ll receive a free ring sizing kit along with your ashes 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 your ashes using the free prepaid tracked returns label. Just pop 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 work to the same ring dimensions that we do, so we highly recommend using our ring sizer for accuracy. Once our memorial ashes rings have been created, they cannot be resized without destroying the ashes setting, which is permanently and securely sealed inside the ring. Using our ring sizer ensures your piece is crafted exactly to your needs, preserving the integrity of this meaningful keepsake.
I don't have any Ashes, could I still order a keepsake?
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.
Can pet Cremation Ashes be used for Jewellery?
Yes, absolutely. We can use pet cremation ashes 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.
The ashes can be incorporated into a design of your choice, and you can even select a colour that reminds you of your pet’s personality or favourite things—like the colour of their collar, their favourite toy, or even the sparkle of their eyes.
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.
