White Glass Heart Necklace Keepsake

Artisan glass gives this one-inch heart its depth: the white is suspended inside the body of the glass rather than painted on the surface, so it shifts slightly as the light moves. No two pieces are identical, which is a property of the material and not a defect. It comes on a chain.

The opening is at the top and takes a token portion of ashes, a small pinch. Glass jewelry is best treated as something you wear rather than something you knock about, so take it off before contact sport or heavy work. Fill it with a small funnel over a sheet of paper, and if you want the threads closed for good, a jeweler will seal them with adhesive.

• Handmade glass, so color and swirl vary from one piece to the next
• One inch tall and supplied on a chain
• Top opening; hold it upright while filling and close it before you move it
