Keeping Your Loved One Close to Your Heart Forever
The infinity symbol (∞) is believed to have been created in 1655 as a mathematical symbol. Also known as a lemniscate, it's used in mathematics to indicate that a variable is growing to approach infinity. It's often associated with the ouroborus, a snake eating its own tail. Both symbols represent how life is an endless circle or ribbon, and how beginnings and endings cannot exist one without the other.
Many people embrace the symbolism of an infinity cremation necklace. For some, it represents how the love they feel for the deceased has not stopped with death, and will continue forever. Others may use it to recognize the eternal connection between life and death.
How Is Cremation Jewelry Different?
Infinity cremation jewelry is designed to hold a small portion of cremains, a lock of hair, dried ceremonial flowers, or even a small amount of the earth from a burial service. Each pendant has a tiny screw that protects a small cremains chamber, into which you can place these items. Your order will come with a small funnel, wood pick, and adhesive to help you put the cremains into the jewelry easily and to seal it permanently once it has been filled.
There is a long tradition of saving a small keepsake of a loved one who has passed away, and infinity cremation jewelry is a lovely way to do so. It's much more secure than a locket or other jewelry item that is not meant to hold cremains. By adding a drop or two of adhesive to the screw on your item, you'll create a permanent seal that will prevent water from getting in or the screw from accidentally coming loose.
