How It Works
-
1. Share Your Idea
Tell us about the person and the piece you have in mind using the short form below. Photos and half formed ideas are welcome. Asking is free.
-
2. Design It Together
We reply within one business day. When you are ready, book a one hour Zoom design session with Rob for $200, credited toward your finished piece.
-
3. Approve Your Design
You see renders and a clear quote before anything is made. A 50 percent deposit starts the work, and we send simple instructions for mailing a small portion of ashes to the studio.
-
4. Crafted and Delivered
Your piece is cast, finished, filled, and sealed, usually two to six weeks after approval. The balance is due when it is finished, and it ships insured to your door.
What We Can Create
-
Custom Urn Rings
A ring designed from scratch, with a sealed chamber for a portion of ashes. A quiet way to keep them close every day.
-
Custom Pendants
A pendant shaped around a symbol, a place, or a memory that belongs only to your family.
-
Custom Bracelets and Earrings
A bracelet with a sealed chamber, or earrings that carry a stone they loved. If you can picture it, ask.
-
Your Metal, Your Details
Sterling silver, gold, palladium, or platinum. Fingerprints, handwriting, names, dates, and birthstones can be worked into your design.
The Jeweler Behind Every Piece
-
More Than 40 Years at the Bench
Rob Hunt has spent more than four decades in jewelry manufacturing and benchwork. Casting, wax carving, stone setting, laser welding, and finishing all happen at his bench, not in a factory.
-
Trusted by Jewelry Stores Nationwide
Jewelry stores and bench jewelers across the country send Rob their casting and repair work and put their own names on what comes back. Your piece gets the same standard.
-
Checked Under the Microscope
Rob alloys his own metal, guarantees his castings against porosity in writing, and inspects every finished piece under a microscope before it ships. A memorial piece deserves nothing less.

Why We Started Cherish Customs
Made for the Memory You Cannot Replace
Since 2018, Cherished Emblems has helped families keep their loved ones close with cremation jewelry. Over the years, many of them told us the same thing:
“I just can’t find the right one.”
Cherish Customs is our answer. Every piece is made by Rob Hunt, a master jeweler and caster in Logan, Utah, with more than 40 years at the bench. He casts gold, platinum, palladium, and silver for jewelers across the country and designs one of a kind pieces himself. Instead of choosing from what exists, you create something made specifically for your memory, your family, and your story.
