Honoring The Departed: Memento Jewelry

$ 295.00 USD

Jewelry stands as a permanent trace of the impermanent body. 

We’ll create jewelry that honors a person who’s no longer with us. Whether grieving death, love loss, or significant life change, beauty comes in recognizing and honoring the departed.

People have a strong desire to wear jewelry that once belonged to a loved one but often don’t view it as their style. Reimagine an heirloom piece to keep a special person close to you.

Bring an item from a departed loved one as inspiration for a new ring, or a treasured gemstone from an existing piece of jewelry that you want to reset.

Vashon Intuitive Arts - perhaps a psychic reading to connect someone with a departed loved one.  Aimée Cartier, PSYCHIC GUIDE,  AUTHOR, INTUITION & EMPATH TEACHER
