Loving Heart Gold Keepsake

A plump heart in gold-plated steel, an inch and a quarter from the bail down to the point. The face is polished smooth with no motif on it, which is why it takes an engraved name or a date better than the patterned pendants sitting beside it in this range.

Capacity is 0.25 cubic inches, so it holds a token measure of ashes rather than a full set; plan on a full-size urn for the rest. The opening sits at the top under the bail, which makes filling straightforward when the pendant is laid flat on a table. Ash, a lock of hair, or a little sand from a place that mattered all work.

• 0.25 cu in chamber, filled at home using a small funnel.
• Top opening under the bail; keep the pendant upright once it is filled.
• Plain on both sides, so it can hang with the back facing out if a date goes there.
