Bereaved people can choose from a range of jewellery including, rings, bracelets, earrings, pendants and necklaces and cufflinks.
The cost of a ring ranges from £165.00 to £215.00, depending on which material you choose. The price of memorial bracelets cost anywhere between £109.00 and £140.00.
Westerleigh Cemetery & Crematorium site manager Shaun Chapman-Young said: “We are very pleased to be working with one of the UK’s largest memorial jewellery companies.
“A big part of grieving is finding a way to honour and keep their loved one with them.
“Creating a piece of jewellery with their ashes, whether it is a ring, bracelet, earrings, charm bead or cufflinks, will provide them with a personal keepsake to forever cherish.
“Anyone with the ashes of their loved one, even if their service did not take place in our crematorium, can still contact us to learn more about how their ashes can be used to create a beautiful and unique piece of jewellery.”
As Westerleigh Crematorium does not provide cremation services for pets, anyone who has the ashes of their pet and would like piece of jewellery made in their memory, should contact EverWith directly.
