Memorial Jewelry: A Lasting Memory in Tangible Form
At Atelier Wolfstone, we believe that love never disappears. Even when someone is no longer physically present, the bond remains. Memorial jewelry is therefore much more than adornment to us, it is a tangible remembrance of a loved one, an animal, or a cherished soul you continue to carry with you.
From our own experience with loss (we both lost our fathers at a young age) we understand how meaningful a small, personal symbol can be. Something you wear close to your skin or near your heart. For this reason, creating memorial jewelry is among the most profound and meaningful work we are honored to do.
What Is Memorial Jewelry?
Memorial jewelry is jewelry in which a remembrance of someone who has passed is carefully incorporated. This may include:
-
Ash jewelry
-
Hair jewelry
-
Fingerprint jewelry
-
Jewelry with a personal engraving
-
Memorial jewelry for animals
Each piece is custom made and fully personalizable, ensuring it reflects both who you are and who you are honoring.
Ash & Hair Jewelry Using Resin and Stone
We incorporate ashes or hair into resin. Resin is transparent or softly tinted, allowing a small amount of ash or a lock of hair to remain visible in a subtle, respectful way.
Because resin alone is not durable enough for lifelong wear, we always protect it with a stone setting. This stone can be completely transparent, such as rock crystal or sapphire, or partially to fully opaque, depending on your preference. This ensures the material within remains protected and your memory preserved beautifully over time.
This technique allows ashes or hair to remain secure, stable and forever held in place.
Invisible Incorporation of Ashes
Some people prefer to keep their remembrance entirely private. In these cases, we can invisibly incorporate ashes into a concealed chamber within the jewelry. This chamber is then sealed within the precious metal (silver or gold) creating a quiet secret held within the piece.
No one else sees it, but you know it is there: a hidden presence, a silent strength, a deeply intimate way of keeping someone close.
Hand-Engraved Fingerprints
A fingerprint is a literal imprint of someone’s unique identity. At Atelier Wolfstone, fingerprint jewelry is engraved entirely by hand in our studio. Each line, curve and detail is carefully preserved, ensuring the engraving remains personal and authentic.
Fingerprint engravings can be bold and visible or subtly integrated, depending on your wishes.
Memorial Jewelry for Animals
The loss of a beloved animal can be just as profound. We have experienced the heartbreak of saying goodbye to our own animal companions and understand how deeply they become part of our lives.
With the same care and dedication, we create memorial jewelry for animals: incorporating ashes, a small lock of fur, or a name engraving. Honoring the bond you shared.
Creating a Memory Together
At Atelier Wolfstone, we do not work with standard templates. We listen to your story, take time to understand your wishes, and create a piece together that truly reflects your connection. Each memorial jewelry piece is handcrafted in our studio with patience, care and respect.
We know what it means to lose someone. We know how powerful it can be to carry a reminder that love never truly leaves, that it can still be worn, felt, and held close. In your heart, and on your hand, neck or wrist.
