Why have a cremation stone:
Cremation ashes are traditionally received in containers or urns, often destined for storage or scattering in a chosen location. However, reluctance to scatter ashes in a place that may not be revisited, a place that may be redeveloped or the desire to keep the memory close can result in ashes being tucked away and ignored for years. Our cremation stones offer a poignant alternative.
Crafted to be both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally comforting, these stones are designed to be proudly displayed, enriching any space they inhabit. Unlike traditional containers, our stones invite interaction—they're meant to be held close, providing a tangible connection to treasured memories and offering solace during moments of remembrance. With our stones, the memory of your loved one can be honoured and celebrated every day, in a way that feels both personal and enduring.
The Solace Stone Process
Select the size of the stone you desire to be hand-crafted. With a single set of ashes, we can create multiple stones in different sizes, depending on the available ash quantity. Ideal for family members or pet owners who wish to have their own stones.
Upon selection, we`ll post you a secure ashes collection kit which you can fill with the necessary amount of ash for the specified size and quantity of stones purchased. Full instructions will be provided in the kit.
For nearby locations, we can arrange to collect the ashes personally.
When the ashes are ready, simply drop the secure collection kit off at your nearest DPD courier drop-off point, and they`ll return them safely back to us. Please note that courier charges will apply depending on the delivery service you choose.
If you're a trade customer, you may want the courier to collect the ashes from your business directly. Please note that only DPD couriers may be used and their relevant courier charges will apply.
Upon receiving your loved one`s ashes, we embark on the meticulous process of hand-crafting your Solace Stone(s) with utmost care and appreciation. We then employ precise laser engraving techniques to inscribe your loved one`s details onto the surface, ensuring a personalized and enduring tribute.
We arrange for the safe delivery of your completed Solace Stone(s) directly to you, tracked through our courier service. The entire process typically spans 6-8 weeks depending on our current capacity.
