Comfort Cross Gold Steel Keepsake

Clean lines and no ornament: a plain cross in gold-plated steel, an inch tall, with nothing set into the face. It is the quietest option in this group and the least expensive of them. A matching chain comes with it.

Half a cubic inch goes inside, which is a token portion of ashes rather than the full amount. For a man who would not have worn anything decorative, this is usually the one that gets chosen. It sits flat against the chest and stays under a shirt without showing through.

• Flat front and back faces both take engraving, offered here as a paid add-on
• Plain enough to wear every day without reading as a memorial piece
• Fill at home with the funnel provided; a jeweler can seal it permanently afterwards
