Clam Shell Capsule Memory Bangle
Cast & Found Memorial
“Look for seashells and you will find seashells; but open them and you will find pearls.”
Gathered from the lapping shores of a British beach, this beautifully textured closed clam shell has been cast in two halves, then fused together to create a permanent capsule. A special way to remember treasured memories by the sea. Over dozens of beach finds, I was drawn to cast this shell because of its symmetry and its texture.
Read Claire's story who commissioned a shell bangle to remember her father.
Each piece is:
- thoughtfully made by hand in my Nottinghamshire studio.
- cast using sustainably sourced 925 sterling silver.
- sealed using a heatless laser for permanence, its precious content kept safe forever.
Dimensions - shell approx 20mm in length, bangle a substantial 3mm round.
Every design is handmade and will require you to send into the studio a small amount of ashes to seal inside the shell. Once an order is placed online you will be sent a small parcel to guide you through the processes of sending in the ashes or other precious content to be permantley encapsulated inside.
Made from: 925 Sterling Silver.

Your Commmission
Every commissioned piece is totally unique to the find you send in, the stories on this page give examples of bespoke jewellery with similar themes. The Cast & Found approach is to capture connections, outcomes are often artistic representations rather than exact replicas of the finds you supply, this the beauty of our jewellery. Every find is creatively explored before being hand crafted into your heirloom piece, therefore if there are ever any concerns as to the outcome of a commission you will be contacted directly. Once you have commissioned and purchased your chosen design, you will receive further information on the next steps and including a pre paid postage label to send in your treasures.
