Company Turns Ashes Of People’s Beloved Pets Into Glass Replica Paws That Serves As A Memorial Forever

By

We can all agree that losing a loved one, either human or animal, is probably one of the hardest experiences one can face in life. To ease the pain of losing a pet, many of us would like to have a constant physical reminder of all the beautiful and meaningful memories that we used to share with our companions.

One such company is Davenport Memorial Glass that specializes in creating small memorial pieces that infuse the creation with a small quantity of a loved one’s ashes.

The company says that the small paws glass creations are particularly popular with their customers because they are small enough to carry a little bit of your beloved dog or cat, wherever you go.

On their website, Davenport writes, “Our goal is to physically capture a moment, to create a keepsake that brings back a memory.”

“Nothing will compare to the time spent with your loved one, but we hope to aid in treasuring them and remembering the precious time you had together.”

Even though our pets represent a huge part of our life, currently there is no formal custom when it comes to memorializing them.

Some animal lovers choose to bury their furry friends in a pet cemetery, and some decide to cremate their pets, just like humans do.

However, if you’re someone who believes that formal burial is a little bit too much, or perhaps you don’t have any pet cemetery nearby, sending a small quantity of ashes of your beloved pet by post to Devenport is looking like the best option never to forget your once inseparable animal.

    • Hi Judy

      There are many glass artists out there that make these, so you’re not just limited to one place. Go to Youtube and type fused glass memorabilia. Or Google it and see what comes up.
      I am in the process of making a fused glass piece with my daughter’s cat fur. This can also be made into a paw.

    • I lost my faithful friend 15 yes ago, he sits in a beautiful box with his name on it, on my sideboard, and when I like you finally lose my precious who is 12 this year, he will sit next to him in his box, I have for years wanted something special, I think I’ve just found it, and I will also keep this, and when the time comes, I shall combine them together into something beautiful maybe a brooch, and be able to walk with them forever, my only hope is that they are not so expensive that the normal working people cannot afford to do it.

  74. I just had to put down our beloved Rogue after 13 years and we had her cremated, I had paw prints done in clay but would LOVE a glass print or heart of her ashes!! Can I get a catalog plz n thank you!

  77. I think this is genius, and would like more information. The cost, pieces offered, how long once ordered does it take, what do you do with the unused ashes sent to you. How durable are the glass pieces that you make? (Fragility), what if I’m not satisfied with the end results of my order. How can I be assured that its in fact only the ashes of my beloved pet that are being used in my personal glass piece ordered.
