Inventor Turns Ashes Into Photo Frames


This Is Nottingham:

Nick Cranham, of Cinderhill, is giving families the chance to keep their loved ones close after death – by turning their ashes into photo frames.

The engineer only used to offer the service to grieving pet lovers but now has applied for a worldwide patent for the idea, which also includes pendants, memorial plaques and cufflinks.

His first client was John Fitton from Buxton, Derbyshire, whose daughter Beth was killed in an accident in July 2007. Cranham made five silver pendants with a polymer inlaid ’stone’ created from Beth’s ashes.

Fitton said: “The pendants are of very high quality and make a unique keepsake of my beautiful daughter Beth.

“Beth’s mother wears hers all the time. The rest of us don’t because we’re afraid of losing them. A little bit of Beth is still with us.”

Cranham came up with the idea for company Sentimental Connections after chatting with a vet friend, and spent £50,000 on research and development.

  • This is a fantastic idea! I love it! to be able to carry your lost loved one with you everywhere you go is a great peace of mind and sense of comfort. the only thing that crosses my mind in this idea is…i don’t think i would want to be the one to handle dead peoples ashes and make keepsakes out of them. but that’s just me…that sort of thing creeps me out a little.

  • The idea is nice but Im not that sentimental to used the ashes of my love one to make a keepsake for me.
    I still believe that humans body is sacred and If ever I lost my love one I dont want his/her dead body to be cremated.

  • This is a bit weird for me really…

  • Well, we have our freedom to choose for what we are going to do in our love ones (dead) body, but in their case i don’t really like it….. I could not relate! really…
