Every life carries meaning and memory. At Salado Glass Works, we create memorial sculptures that allow families to preserve a small part of their loved one in a beautiful, handcrafted form.
A small amount of ashes is gently incorporated into the glass during the blowing process. As the glass moves and forms, the ashes create subtle patterns within the color of the piece — resulting in a one-of-a-kind tribute that reflects light, movement, and remembrance.
Creating memorial glass is something we approach with great care and respect. Our process is designed to be simple and thoughtful for families.
Reach out to begin the conversation about your memorial piece and the best way to handle the remains.
Select from the available memorial shapes and preferred color palette.
A small portion of the ashes is prepared for incorporation into the glass.
Our artists carefully incorporate the ashes into the molten glass during the blowing process. This process is done privately and respectfully.
The sculpture cools gradually in the annealing oven to ensure strength and durability.
Memorial pieces are typically ready within 2–3 weeks, and can be picked up or shipped if needed.
