November Orange Silver Keepsake

Warm orange is November's stone colour, and it reads brighter against silver than most of the darker months do. The pendant is a plain round disc, five eighths of an inch across, with the stone set into the middle and nothing else on the face. It hangs from a fixed bail.

If the thought of the threads working loose keeps you up, take it to a jeweler after you fill it and ask them to set the closure with a drop of adhesive. That makes it permanent, which most people want once the ashes are in. It holds a token portion, well under a cubic inch, so decide on your urn or burial plan first and fill this afterwards.

• Threads can be sealed by a jeweler once filled, making it permanent
• Orange stone in plain silver; no pattern on the surrounding face
• Fill this after the main urn is decided, not before
