Our Spring Celestial Marble Cremains Encased in Glass Keepsake Cremation Urn is a beautiful handmade glass keepsake made by mixing your loved one's ashes with glass. This perfectly round keepsake contains iridescent glass twist imitating a celestial body. It sits on a marble ring.
The techniques used to form and festoon this glass memorial haven't changed much since the first core formed vessels were made in ancient Egypt. The artist uses an annealing process to slowly cool the glass to ensure strength and durability and to keep the glass from sudden thermal shock. Pieces are placed in the artist's kiln and cooled over time.
NOTE: Our glass keepsakes are hand made using special coloring treatments during the creation process. Your memorial's color may vary slightly from the pictures shown.

After placing your order with us, you will receive a kit to send us a small portion of the loved ones cremains. Handling ashes is a huge responsibility.
This kit will contain a sterile jar labeled with a unique identifier that matches our invoice number. A small scoop so you can fill the jar with the cremains. A shipping envelope to provide the order and cremains to create your personal tribute
Once we receive your kit we process each order. Only one piece of glass is created at a time and the facility is cleaned thoroughly between orders.
After 6-7 weeks your order will be shipped insured.
How much of the cremains are needed to make a memorial keepsake?
We only use about two tablespoons of the cremains to make your tributes.
How do I know that it is my cremains in the glass memorial?
All our tributes come with a Certificate of Authenticity, verifying that your cremains were used while making the glass keepsake. After an order is placed a unique identifier is assigned to the order in our computer. Your cremains collection kit will be tagged with the identifier and it will follow your memorial through the creation process until it is completed and sent back to you.
In some pieces the swirl of white ash looks far more white and dense than in others why is this?
Generally speaking, this has to do with the quality of the cremains. Unfortunately, sometimes we get some that make for a denser set of bubbles.
