Self fill Ashes Jewellery

Self-fill ashes jewellery lets you keep a loved one close wherever you go. Each piece has a small, discreet chamber you fill yourself at home with a tiny portion of ashes or a strand of hair. This guide explains how it works and shows the designs we currently make.

Quick answer: Self-fill ashes jewellery is a pendant, bracelet or ring with a small sealed chamber that you fill yourself with a pinch of ashes or a lock of hair. It is discreet, so only you need know what it holds, and comes in pendants, bracelets and rings, in finishes from stainless steel to gold. It lets you carry a loved one with you, close to your heart, every day.

How does self-fill ashes jewellery work?

Each piece has a small chamber, usually sealed with a screw fitting. You add a tiny portion of ashes or a strand of hair yourself at home, then close it securely. The chamber is discreet, so the jewellery looks like any other beautiful piece and only you know what it holds. You do not need to send anything away, and you keep the rest of the ashes.

Pendants and necklaces

Our self-fill memorial pendants unscrew to reveal a small chamber, then sit close to your heart on a chain. Designs include the simple Classic, the Round, the Harmony, the Horizon, the Eternal Flame and the Tranquil, in silver and gold finishes.

Bracelets

Self-fill ashes bracelets carry a small stainless steel chamber on the band. They come in feminine and masculine styles and materials including stainless steel, leather, braided leather and woven cord, the last originally from the nautical industry, strong yet soft on the wrist. Many are unisex and suit both casual and formal wear. Browse them in our ashes jewellery collection.

Rings

A self-fill ashes ring holds a small chamber within the band, a quiet, sentimental reminder you can wear every day. The simple design pairs easily with casual or formal attire, available in steel and gold-plated finishes.

Whichever you choose, ashes jewellery pairs well with keeping the rest of the ashes at home or returning them to nature. For more ideas, see our hub on what to do with ashes after cremation, and to compare styles, our guide on which memorial jewellery is best for you.
