September w/ Sapphire Sterling Silver Keepsake

Families who want the September stone usually choose between this round silver disc and the taller pendant version sold beside it. This is the flat one, about an inch across, with a sapphire at the centre and a screw opening set into the side of the rim. The blue is dark rather than bright.

Inside there is space for a token portion of ashes, measured in fractions of a cubic inch. That is a small spoonful and no more, which matters when several relatives each want a piece; one adult set divides comfortably among many. Fill it over a sheet of paper so anything that spills can be tipped straight back in.

• Flat disc about 1 inch across, distinct from the taller top-opening version
• Sapphire on sterling silver; the plain back suits engraving
• Fill over paper with the funnel supplied so nothing is lost
