- How much ash does the heart hold?
- Only a small pinch. The chamber is sized for a symbolic amount, not the full remains, so most families keep the rest in an urn.
- Can I fill it myself?
- It is possible with a small funnel and the seal provided, but many buyers have a jeweler fill and seal it to avoid losing ash or damaging the setting.
- Will it turn my finger green?
- Sterling silver can leave a dark mark on some skin, especially with sweat or lotion. It is not the green staining of cheap plated rings, and regular cleaning limits it.
- Is it waterproof?
- No. Remove it for showers, swimming and dishes. Water and soap can work into the chamber seal and speed up tarnish.
- Does it come in other sizes?
- The listing covers sizes 6, 7 and 8 only. If your finger is outside that range, ask the seller about a custom size before ordering.
- When is the best time to buy?
- Memorial jewelry rarely gets deep discounts. Watch for holiday and Mother's Day sales, and compare across stores since prices for the same ring vary.
