Dichroic Glass Cremation Jewelry
Cremation necklaces made from dichroic glass are a most unusual kind of memorial jewelry. Unlike an urn pendant, in which cremated remains are sealed in a hollow chamber, dichroic glass cremation jewelry is made by fusing a loved one's ashes into the glass work, so the ashes actually become a part of the jewelry itself.
What is Dichroic Glass?
Although NASA is sometimes credited with inventing dichroic glass, the origins of "dichro," as it is referred to by some artisans, have actually been traced to ancient times. The word "dichroic" comes from a Greek word meaning "two colors"; dichroic glass is so named because its appearance changes according to the direction of light reflected off the glass and the angle from which it is viewed.
All dichroic glass is created by means of a technical process in which multiple, extremely thin layers of gold Tory Burch Black Leather Bootie , silver, metal oxides (such as titanium, chromium, aluminum, zirconium, and magnesium), and silica are vaporized Tory Burch Reva Leather Ballet Flats Silver , resulting in the formation of crystals on the surface of the glass. The result is a brilliant array of color with a unique appearance unlike anything else.
The dichroic glass that goes into dichroic glass cremation jewelry is just like any other dichroic glass - with one important exception. The distinguishing feature of cremation keepsakes made from dichroic glass is the cremated remains that are also fused into the glass.
How Dichroic Glass Cremation Jewelry Is Made
Each dichroic glass keepsake pendant is made up of three layers of glass. The bottom layer is black glass with an iridescent back Tory Burch Sally Tumbled Leather Wedges Black , the middle layer consists of multiple pieces of dichroic glass in different colors Tory Burch Sally Tumbled Leather Wedges Light Yellow , and the top layer is a clear glass covering. The cremated remains are fused between the bottom layer and the dichroic glass layer. Depending on the specific process used to create the dichroic glass cremation jewelry Tory Burch Sally Tumbled Leather Wedges Yellow , the cremations may or may not be visible inside the memorial jewelry.
You can choose two or more different colors for your dichroic glass cremation jewelry, but keep in mind that because each ash pendant is a one-of-a-kind creation, individual colors and patterns will vary. Dichroic glass memorial pendants come with their own neck cords, but you can easily remove the cord and attach your own chain or necklace if you prefer.

Jewelry Trends For Summer 2009
During the 1930s depression, people looked to the movies with upbeat musicals and lavish sets for that touch of optimism. Fashion too reflects the movie scene, with glamourous and sensual clothes, fur trimmed clothes by day and backless dresses by night. The look was luxe in contrast to the economic climate of that time.
Enter 2009 Tory Burch Wallet Blue Black NTW31 , with the depressing economic climate. Fashion goes upbeat. An escape from the gloom and doom of these times. Canary yellow halter dresses, primary colors in clothes, chic assymmetrical dresses and gorgeous flowy Tory Burch print Leather Reva Ballet pink , printed gowns are just some of the looks offered this season.
On top of that jewelry goes overboard. It kind of makes sense. Mankind looks beyond the immediate gloom Tory Burch Leather Reva Ballet Flats White , to the hope that lies beyond it. Movies. Theater. Fashion. All forms of art provide man an escape from current troubles. Fantasy. Imagination. All signify hope for a better future.
Jewelry is about beauty. Art. Fantasy. Like catching stars and wearing them on your ears Tory Burch Patent Caroline Reva Ballet Flat in Black , letting them trail down your neck, in the form of shoulder duster earrings
The gloomier the outlook, the more flamboyant fashion gets. Jewelry gets gigantic.
At Valentino's Spring/Summer 2009 ready to wear collection, models wore choker necklaces that covered the neck down to the chest with bling. Or at very least, if a necklace was worn Tory Burch 'Stacked Logo' classic totes Deep Rose , it was a statement piece. Like a choker that completely covers the wearer's throat. There's nothing wishy washy about these necklaces. Either go sans jewelry or wear them chunky.
John Galliano accessorized suits with humongous pendants on chunky chains for Spring/Summer 2009.
At Zac Posen's models wore huge earrings that can be likened to door knockers for the Spring/Summer 2009 ready to wear collection.
In all, for Summer 2009, forget about dainty jewelry that you have to strain your eyes to see. Opt for statement jewelry instead. In particular, go for chunky jewelry that's this season's must have accessory.
