December Light Blue Silver Keepsake

December's colour is light blue, and that is the stone set into the middle of this round silver pendant. The disc measures five eighths of an inch across and the same top to bottom, so the stone sits at the center of a fairly small face. The rim is smooth and undecorated.

The closure is a screw top rather than a plug: the bail end threads down onto the body, so the piece is opened and shut with a quarter turn between finger and thumb. Wearers who worry about losing what is inside usually prefer this over a friction fit. It holds a token portion of ashes, well under a cubic inch, and is not a substitute for an urn.

• Screw-top closure opens and shuts with a quarter turn by hand
• Round face about 5/8 inch across, sized for everyday wear
• Comes with a chain; a jeweler can seal the threads for permanence
