Military Service Steel Gold Keepsake

Standing three and a half inches tall and only three quarters of an inch wide, this is a long, slim pendant rather than a locket. Gold-toned steel, polished, with military service detailing worked along the body. The proportions read closer to a dog tag than a charm, which is why families of service members tend to pick it out of the grid.

It loads from the top. Capacity holds a small token portion of ashes, enough for a pinch and no more, so plan on a full-size urn for the rest. Some buyers fill it with soil from a burial site or sand from a posting instead, which works just as well and avoids opening the urn twice.

• Top opening; fill with the funnel, then have a jeweler seal the threads
• Chain included, ready to wear on arrival
• Engraving proof must be approved by 1:00 PM CST to ship the same day
