Losing a horse is one of the hardest things an owner ever has to go through and you’ll always miss them, but ash and horse hair keepsakes are a nice way to treasure their memory. Whether you’re considering an item of jewellery, keyring or ornament, a horse hair or ash keepsake will allow you to keep your loved one with you.
Most sellers will stipulate a minimum amount of hair that you need to provide, which they’ll then clean and incorporate into your chosen keepsake. Having an ash or horse hair keepsake made is a very personal service, so keep an eye out for reviews that praise good communication as well as finished product.
