A Personal Tribute — Held in Your Hand, Carried in Your Heart
This handcrafted cremation ash glass touchstone transforms cherished memories into a deeply personal keepsake. Created in luminous glass and designed to be held comfortably in your hand, each piece offers a quiet and tangible connection to someone deeply loved. Whether remembering a family member, friend, or beloved pet, this memorial touchstone becomes a gentle reminder of the bond that remains.
A Memory You Can Hold
Soft silver smoke swirls move through the glass, surrounding a small amount of cremation ash carefully embedded within the piece. Smooth, polished, and comforting to hold, this touchstone is designed for moments of reflection — something you can keep in a pocket, purse, or simply hold in your hand whenever you want to feel close to the memory you carry.

Creating Your Memorial Piece
After you place your order, you'll automatically receive an email with the next steps. This includes a short form to complete online and simple instructions for sending a small amount of ashes. You are also invited to include a photo of your loved one or pet. I keep the photo nearby in the studio while creating your piece so I can feel a deeper connection to the life being honoured throughout the memorial process. Additional details about the process can be found in the drop-down sections on this page.
For Family & Loved Ones
Many families choose more than one piece so each person can carry the same memory in their own way. Matching designs are available across several styles, including pendants, earrings, and other keepsakes, allowing you to mix and match pieces for yourself or someone close to you. If you don't see the matching piece you're looking for, send me a quick message and I'll be happy to customize it for you.
