The heart is the shape most people reach for first, and there's a reason for that. It reads as love and remembrance without needing any explanation, which is part of why it remains the most popular design in ashes jewellery. The Heart Keepsake keeps that symbolism simple: a clean, heart-shaped stainless steel pendant with a small chamber inside for a symbolic portion of a loved one's ashes.
It comes in black, silver, or gold, so it can be matched to the wearer's usual style rather than standing out as an obvious memorial piece. Stainless steel is the sensible choice for something worn daily; it resists scratching and won't tarnish the way softer metals can. At 18mm wide and 30mm tall, the pendant sits comfortably on the chain without feeling oversized.
Inside, the chamber is deliberately small, enough for a pinch of ashes rather than a large amount, and sealed with a threaded closure that screws shut. That keeps the contents secure through everyday wear, so the necklace can be worn without worry once it's filled and closed.
For anyone searching for ashes jewellery NZ wide and drawn to a design that's meaningful at a glance, the heart is a natural starting point. It's one of several styles in our keepsake jewellery range, so it's worth comparing shapes and finishes if you're not sure which the person would have chosen.

Keepsake Jewellery FAQs
What is keepsake jewellery?
Keepsake jewellery is exactly what it sounds like: a piece of jewellery built to hold something meaningful inside it, usually a small amount of ashes.
Most pieces work the same way. A tiny sealed chamber sits inside a pendant, ring, or bracelet, filled through a small opening and closed with a screw thread.
People also call it 'cremation jewellery' or 'memorial jewellery', different names for the same idea: carrying a physical piece of someone close rather than just a photo.
It's not just for people either. Plenty of families choose ashes jewellery for a pet, using the same small-chamber design.
The appeal is simple. It's discreet enough for daily wear, but it means whoever you've lost is genuinely with you.
What are the different types of memorial jewellery?
Necklaces and pendants are the most common by far. A chain with a sealed chamber pendant, worn daily or kept for special occasions.
Rings come next, popular with people who want something more discreet than a necklace for ashes. Bracelets and charms follow a similar idea, just worn on the wrist.
Beyond ash-chamber pieces, there's fingerprint jewellery, where an actual print gets cast into metal, and jewellery made from ashes near me searches often turn up this style, pieces where ash is fused into resin or glass rather than sealed inside a cavity.
Material varies too. Stainless steel is common and affordable; sterling silver and gold exist for something with more lasting value.
Most families choose based on what the person would have actually worn.
What are some good memory necklaces for loved ones?
It really comes down to who's wearing it day to day. A simple pendant with a subtle stone works well for someone who wants understated jewellery rather than something obviously a memorial piece.
Heart-shaped designs remain the most popular memorial necklace style, largely because the symbolism doesn't need explaining.
For a bit more visual interest, opal-style or natural stone accents add colour without looking like a cremation piece at first glance, which is useful if you'd rather not field questions from strangers.
Pure Memorials' necklace for ashes range covers all of these, from minimal stainless steel pendants through to nine-colour natural stone pieces, so there's something for whichever way someone prefers to carry that memory.
Whatever you choose, check it has a proper sealed closure.
