Solid Glass Gemstones
Your loved one’s cremation ashes are set within solid glass and crafted into a gemstone by our glassmakers at Barleylands Glassworks. Clearly visible within the glass, the ashes form a natural pattern unique to every gemstone.
Made to be worn. Made to last.
We believe something this meaningful should be made to last. Your gemstone is specially tempered for everyday wear, so you can wear it with confidence. It is designed to resist damage from knocks and bumps, as well as exposure to water, sunlight and household and personal care products. The colored glass will stay vibrant and will not fade over time.
How Are the Ashes Set Within the Glass?
Each gemstone is formed with layers of colored glass, your loved one’s cremation ashes and clear glass. The colored glass creates the backdrop, while the clear glass covers the ashes and keeps them visible within the finished gemstone.
Once cooled, the stone is cut and polished to reveal the finished gemstone and the natural pattern created by the ashes.
In Our Care
We believe you should know where your loved one’s ashes are, who they are entrusted to, and where your jewelry is made.
Ashes into Glass gemstones are crafted by our own glassmakers at Barleylands Glassworks.
Barleylands Glassworks is part of Barleylands Craft Village, a community of craftspeople and independent businesses. Our workshops are open to visitors, so you can see for yourself where and how the jewelry is made.
