After the cremation, remains are solidified into stone. A natural, solid option cleaner and more manageable than cremains. The solidification process for an adult returns the full amount of remains as an average of 40-60 solids depending on the amount of ash provided. The appearance of each set will vary naturally in shape, color, and texture making each collection of solidified remains uniquely beautiful. Click here to learn more.
