Two-Sided Memorial Bead Engravings

Most of our cremation memorial beads can be custom engraved on both end caps, allowing meaningful phrases, names, dates, or messages to flow naturally from one side to the other. Each side can accommodate up to 20 characters, including spaces and punctuation.

We can also engrave a selection of symbols, including hearts, paw prints, horseshoes, crescent moons, stars, infinity symbols, and crosses. Please note that symbols take up more engraving space and may reduce the number of characters available. If you have a special symbol in mind, feel free to reach out before ordering. We may be able to create a custom engraving to make your memorial even more personal and meaningful.
