The Eternal Orb

  • The Eternal Orb is handcrafted from optically pure Pyrex glass.  Ashes are fist suspended within layers of glass, then spun into a unique spiral pattern, and finally backed with a color of your choice.

  • • The Orb is roughly 2 ½" in diameter (about the size of a billiard ball) 

    • A free Collection Kit is provided with every order for the safe & secure delivery of ashes to Grateful Glass

    • Each Orb includes elegant presentation packaging as well as a personalized Certificate of Authenticity. A lucite stand is included at no additional charge and an LED light stand is available for purchase

    • Because of the handcrafted nature of our products, some variation in color and design/dispersion of ashes should be expected. Likewise, each set of ashes reacts uniquely when encased in hot glass. As a result, certain sets of ashes may be less visible or show up as a slightly different color compared to our sample images. 

  • Shipping is a 3 step process. 1) After placing your order, a collection kit will be mailed to you. 2) You will then return the collection kit complete with your loved one’s ashes to the Grateful Glass studio. 3) Finally, we handcraft your keepsake to order and ship it to you along with any unused ashes.

    Shipping of the collection kit as well as your finished keepsake are included for FREE with every order. The return shipment of the collection kit is not included with your order. We have found for the most secure return possible, the kit must be brought in person to your local Post Office for processing.

A long time coming

I first saw Matt’s website at least a dozen years ago and probably more. I have family members all over the country and as people got older I saw how much it bothered them not to be able to travel and visit their loved ones. It was then that I decided I would be cremated and I want some of my remains to be combined in to an orb. I told my son, I then want him to put two google eyes on the orb and I’m to be kept near his computer or TV so we can continue to enjoy things together. At first he thought this was creepy, but now he appreciates it. Well, fast forward to January 2024 and my dad passed away at 89. He also desired to be cremated so I took some of his ashes and sent them to Matt. What I got back is so beautiful and gives me such comfort when I look at it or hold it. I keep it on my computer desk so it is always near me. I like knowing where my dad is, he is right next to me. Matt was wonderful at walking me through the process and keeping me informed. I couldn’t be happier with him or the product.

I am so pleased with all of the items we purchased after losing our baby girl Tally. What a beautiful and thoughtful way to feel closer to her and to see the creations Matt had crafted. Can’t thank you enough, Matt, for the important and beautiful creations you make.

Amazingly beautiful piece of art

My necklace is incredibly beautiful. The ashes over the cobalt blue glass looks like a sky full of stars. I could not have asked for more. I love that I will always have a piece of my mom with me all of the time. The packaging was very thoughtful. The collection kit was nice and tactful, and the box that the necklace was sent to me in was very nice, with the remaining ashes tucked inside. Thank you to Matthew for such a special memorial keepsake ❤️

The pieces were obviously done with care and turned out just as I hoped. Matt was very responsive to any questions I had.

Parents keepsake

Matt did an outstanding job in communicating the process after I placed my order. He walked me through the steps of the collection and shipping of the cremation remains. Would highly recommend Grateful Glass for your loved ones keepsakes.
