Parting Stone Gallery

I've had my mother’s ashes for over a decade. I kept them in my clothing closet. They didn't make me feel warm or sentimental. Getting these has been transformative.
Garth Clark

It’s more sentimental to have an object than it is to have ashes. In the stone form, it’s an easier way to carry somebody with you without so much weight and stigma.
Trevor Bahnson

I had no idea what I was going to do with his ashes... it’s a messy business. Once they came back as these beautiful stones, I love holding them and I love showing them to people.

Letters from families

Pat,
Thank you for taking such good care of my husband. When his stones arrived I felt a calm throughout my body that I haven't felt since I lost him. Knowing I can have him with me puts me at peace whenever I leave the house.
Catherine

Thank you for taking care of my FIL's ashes. The stones will allow my MIL and their grandkids to spread them at all their favorite locations including on our family vacation to WDW. They all get to keep a piece of him with them. Kind regards

A PEACEFUL FEELING WARMED MY HEART as I looked at one and felt the beautifully polished stones. Thank you for taking such good care of my dearly departed wife. I will carry her in my pocket wherever I go and decorate my house and garden with her. All the best to you and your loved ones - Terry

Alexandra,
Thank you is not sufficient for the work on the parting stones for my husband Warren. His passing was sudden and a great shock. It is of great comfort to have him back home with me. I keep one stone with me wherever I go. Our daughter does the same. There are not enough words to express our appreciation for your work and attention to my husband's stone.
Sincerely, Anita

Dear Alexandra- I received my father's stores several weeks ago. The care taken to package and present his stones was so very touching. Thank you for your work and the detail of your packaging. My dad was quite the outdoorsman and naturalist. He was also an avid traveler and explorer. Part of my decision to pursue the creation of the stores is so I can”take” dad with me as I continue to travel and explore the US and world. Thank you for making that possible! Blessings - Becky

Frequently Asked Questions

How many "stones" is a human?

Depends on each person. It is roughly a 1:1 ratio of traditional remains to solidified remains returned. On average a human is 40-60 solidified remains.

Can I get a specific number of solidified remains?

No, the solidification process varies from person-to-person in the number, shape, color, and size of "stones" produced.

How long does the solidification process take?

The solidification process typically takes 6 weeks from when we receive the ashes at our lab. At times, we have a waitlist of orders and you will be notified of the current wait time before checking out on our website. Our priority is to successfully return beautiful "stones" to each customer and sometimes that takes extra time.

Do you accept alkaline hydrolysis remains?

We are proudly in the early stages of accepting and processing alkaline hydrolysis remains into solidified remains. If you are interested in sending alkaline hydrolysis remains for solidification, please contact our Customer Support team.

What is involved in the solidification process?

The entire solidification process looks like making ceramics in a laboratory. Once the remains arrive at our lab, we remove contaminants and refine the ash then create a clay-like material. From there, we form, solidify in a kiln, and polish the "stones" before returning them to you. You can see a fun animation of the whole process on our homepage here.

Can I scatter the solidified remains?

Yes. Solidified remains act like real stones so if you keep them outside or scatter, they will be there a long time.
