The production of the original ©Memorial Glass is protected by a patent. The only holder of the patent for the production technology of Memory Glass is the owner of Memory Crystal s.r.o., Mr. Dalibor Novák.

The original Memorial Glass is produced by master glassmakers from the highest quality Czech crystal glass in our own glassworks in Česká Lípa. All designs of glass commemorative items are our original designs.

 

The memorial glass is created by combining high quality crystal and a small amount of the deceased’s ashes, which are sealed directly into the glass during the production process. The combination of the delicate decoration and ashes creates an extraordinarily beautiful and unique phenomenon that perpetuates the memory of a loved one’s life. Commemorative glass comes in many shapes, designs and colours. For example, in the shape of a drop, teardrop, pyramid, oil lamp, candle holder, neck pendant, bracelet bead, cut stone for a ring or free-form sculpture.

We take great care in the respectful handling of the ashes sent to us and in the constant checking of the unmistakability of the ashes throughout the production process.

The production process is constantly monitored by surveillance cameras. If you wish, you can come to us by appointment and be present during the actual production of the memorial glass.

Each commemorative glass is provided with a registration code and a certificate of authenticity for the use of ash.
