Cremulets

Cremulets are a unique and beautiful way to preserve a small amount of your loved one's cremains in a fused glass amulet. A cremulet may be worn like a pendant, or simply displayed in an appropriate place at home. All cremulets are custom made to your specifications based on a large number of possible designs-- samples are available for viewing here online. We require only a very small amount of cremains to make a cremulet, and you can be assured that they are treated with respect and care.

 A Cremulet is a fused glass amulet designed to permanently preserve, protect and display a small amount of cremains in a way that is both strikingly beautiful and tasteful.
 The diagram on the right shows the basic process: Some cremains are placed between two or more layers of fusible glass and fired at a high temperature in a glass kiln.

 When the layers of glass fuse together, as in the diagram on the left, the cremains remain in their original position, preserved and protected within what is now a single piece of glass.
 The final look of the cremulet depends on the the colors of the original layers of glass, and we often use a special glass called "dichroic" to add the shimmering accents you'll see in many of the samples.
