Necklace Urn: A Wearable Memorial for Loved Ones

An urn you can wear

Honoring the memory of your loved one can take many forms but if you are looking at a unique way to do so, you could consider a necklace urn that you can wear at all times. A necklace urn is a chain with a tiny urn attached to it and containing the ashes of your loved one. It is a way to keep your connection with the departed loved one alive even as you go about your everyday life. A necklace urn is categorized as cremation or memorial jewelry, and there is a range of other such pieces like bracelets or chains with ash-holding pendants. 

Relevance of a necklace urn

If you have opted to bid farewell to a loved one by way of cremation and not a burial then you are given their ashes to appropriately memorialize. Choosing to secure the ashes in an urn is just one option; using wearable urns is another option you could consider for these reasons: 

1. The personal touch: Healing from the loss of a loved one who held a special place in your life is not easy and grief can hit you anytime and anywhere. Although there are many symbols and keepsakes to keep alive the memory of your loved one, a necklace urn you wear day in and day out is a deeply personal way to keep memories of your dear one alive. An urn on a mantelpiece may slowly become impersonal and just an adornment whereas an urn with ashes of your loved one close to your heart is indeed special. 
2. Subtlety: Grieving is private and not everyone may wish to draw attention. Having a necklace with a tiny urn of ashes attached is a subtle and discreet way to grieve and honor the legacy of a dear one. 
3. Reflection of personality and taste of loved one: How you honor and remember your loved one is just as important as keeping them in your heart. By choosing something that reflects the taste and personality of your loved one, you are paying a tribute to their individuality and style. A necklace urn may just be what your loved one would have approved because it is classy, subtle and personal. 
4. Constant availability: When you wear a necklace urn, you have access to your loved one’s memories all the time and more so, at a particularly vulnerable moment. On the other hand, when you store the ashes in an urn or another keepsake at home, you may not have access to it when you need it the most. 

An Emotional Style Statement 

Wearing a necklace urn can be a style statement and you can team the piece of jewelry with your outfits to match different occasions. The urns come in a variety of finishes such as pewter, rose or black and have a separate space at the bottom to secure the ashes of your loved one. By wearing an elegant necklace urn you will be able to cherish the range of emotions and memories associated with your dear one. 

Necklace urn buying guide

Are you buying the necklace urn for yourself or to gift it in honor of the departed? If your answer is yes to either of the options, consider individual taste and also the taste of the departed so you can pick a necklace urn that is truly apt. Respecting the taste of both the wearer and the departed will help you make the right choice. 

• Material: Metals like stainless steel or silver are durable materials so a necklace urn made of such materials is ideal if you wish to hold on to them for a long time. What’s more, metals like stainless steel also come in multiple finishes, giving you more options to pick from.
• Design: Pick a design that’s ornate or simple but make sure that the design is in line with either your or your loved one’s personality. You can even get your chain and urn personalized by getting your loved one’s initials or motto embossed. Also check the screws to the urn and the compartment designed to hold the ashes. 
• Size: Make sure you check the size of the chain and the tiny urn holding the ashes because you wouldn’t want to end up with something that’s either too large or too tiny.
