Reliquaries

A pet reliquary is a deeply personal way to keep your cherished companion close. I create cloisonné portraits of your beloved pet, capturing their likeness and essence through layers of enamel and precious metal. Each piece becomes a heartfelt tribute, blending fine art with remembrance.

Popular designs include rings, necklaces, and brooches, each holding a small vessel within which I carefully encase your pet’s ashes or cremains. Every reliquary is one-of-a-kind, crafted with devotion and care. The design is as personal and irreplaceable as the life it honors, a timeless keepsake to carry their love with you always.

Every reliquary begins with your photos and an intimate conversation about your pet’s personality, quirks, and spirit. This helps me infuse their true energy into the work so that when you see the finished piece, you feel them—their warmth, joy, and presence—reflected back to you.

A reliquary for a loved one is more than jewelry—it is a sacred keepsake designed to hold memory, emotion, and spirit. Together, we will create a meaningful and personal piece of remembrance, one that reflects the essence of the person you wish to honor. Each reliquary is a fusion of art and sentiment, made to bring comfort and connection through beauty and symbolism.

Our process begins with a thoughtful conversation about your loved one—their personality, passions, and what made them extraordinary. From there, we design a one-of-a-kind piece that captures their story. I’ve worked with a wide range of materials to create custom reliquaries, including birthstones, gemstones, cicada wings, fish skins, and even pieces of fabric imbued with personal meaning. Every element is chosen to symbolize and celebrate a life lived with love.

There are truly no limits to what we can create together. Whether simple or intricate, traditional or unexpected, your reliquary will be designed to reflect the soul it represents. If you feel called to begin designing a custom reliquary, contact me—I would be honored to collaborate with you in bringing this deeply personal piece to life.
