Different Gold Types

You'll find that Gold Cremation Jewelry comes in a variety of different styles. In order to understand what you're buying, we will go through these different types.

Gold Plated Jewelry

The most affordable option Gold Plated Cremation Jewelry involves applying a layer of gold over other metals. With proper caution, care, and maintenance, this type of memorial jewelry can last a considerable amount of years.

Gold Vermeil

Gold Vermeil Cremation Jewelry has a layer of 14 karat gold placed (at least 2.5 microns) over a 925 sterling silver base.

Due to the thicker layer of gold plating, it is more durable than gold plated jewelry, and tends to be more durable.

It is also hypoallergenic and more affordable than solid gold & gold filled jewelry.

Gold Filled

Gold-Filled Cremation Jewelry is made up of a thicker layer of gold than previous options. It requires at least 1/20th or 5% of its weight bonded to a base of some metals.

Gold filled jewelry is hypoallergenic, excellent for daily wear, and less likely to discolor over time. It's also still a very affordable option.

Solid Gold

Solid Gold Cremation Jewelry is the highest quality pieces and should last forever.

Usually ranging from 12-18 karats, it is hypoallergenic, won't discolor, and is ideal for daily use.

If you're looking to create a family heirloom that can be passed down for generations, we highly recommend choosing solid gold. It's definitely more expensive, but it's guaranteed to last.

Personalized Gold Cremation Jewelry

There are a number of common options offered by artists to personalize your piece of Gold Memorial Jewelry. Here are some of the common ways below:

Gold Color

One of the most obvious ways to personalize a piece of cremation jewelry is by using a specific gold color.

  • Yellow gold: The most traditional and common type of gold chosen for jewelry, yellow gold is radiant, timeless, and a symbol of vitality. 
  • Rose Gold: Elegant and feminine, Rose Gold is a popular option that can represent love & compassion.
  • White Gold: Very stylish and understated, White Gold Jewelry is commonly associated with purity & harmony.

Ashes into jewelry

What could be more personal than creating a piece of jewelry made out of the ashes of your loved one? To make a piece of ash infused jewelry, you’ll need to send the artist or jeweler less than a teaspoon of ashes. The ashes are then infused into a gemstone, glass, resin, or some other type of material. 

Engraving

Most cremation jewelry types are engravable, where you can add a name, a few words, or memorable date. Some are also photo engravable where you have the option to engrave a photo of the deceased directly onto the jewelry piece. 

Fingerprints

With fingerprint cremation jewelry, you can have the deceased’s fingerprint laser engraved on the jewelry piece.

Birthstone

With birthstone cremation jewelry you can have a lovely birthstone of your choice incorporated into the design.  You can choose your birth date or that of the person who is no longer here.
