Cremation medallions are a popular way to keep loved ones close after cremation. They come in different shapes and materials, can contain a small amount of ashes, and range in price from $70 to over $1,000. Similar jewelry has been used throughout history, and a new technology creates synthetic diamonds from ashes.

Cremation medallions are a new way to commemorate the passing of a loved one. Medallions can be made from different materials ranging from glass to metal and come in a variety of shapes. The most popular shapes are the heart and the cross. They can be attached to a charm bracelet, or worn as a pin or pendant. Men can attach them to a keychain or pocket watch chain.

As more and more people choose to be cremated, those left behind are looking for new and different ways to keep their loved ones close, except in an urn on a mantle. Many who choose cremation are no longer satisfied with the old options of scattering or burial. Instead, these people are bequeathing or purchasing medallions that will contain a small amount of ashes for family, friends, and other relatives.

Cremation medallions are not cheap and range in price from around $70.00 to over $1,000.00 for solid gold. Many online companies are making these medallions and they may also be available at your local funeral home.

Medallions are also available for the remains of beloved pets and come in shapes like food bowls, paws, and other animal shapes.

Cremation lockets are not the first piece of jewelry used to remember a deceased loved one. During the Victorian era, jewelry was made from the hair of a deceased loved one. These jewels, known as mourning pieces, are highly collectible today depending on the intricacy of the weaving.

Since Edwardian times, mourning rings were worn by the aristocratic classes to show their high status. The richer the man, the more elaborate the ring that was bequeathed to those who remained alive. In general, they were delivered at the funeral of the deceased.

In the future, a new technology is being developed that creates a synthetic diamond from the cremated ashes. Still in early development, the stones are currently available in the color blue and are priced at over two thousand dollars.
