Mens Black Cross Keepsake Pendant

Black finish over stainless steel, squared arms, a matte face rather than a mirror one: this cross is built heavier than the other pendants here and wears as a men's piece. It is one inch tall. The bottom section unscrews for filling and threads back tight.

Capacity is the real difference. It holds about a full cubic inch, roughly four times what a standard keepsake pendant takes, which makes filling far less fiddly. It is still a portion and not a complete set of ashes, but it is the most generous pendant in this group by a clear margin. Sons buying for a father usually end up here.

• One cubic inch, about four times a standard keepsake pendant
• Matte black finish hides fingerprints better than polished steel
• Threaded base can be sealed by a jeweler for permanence
