The latest innovation in remembrance 🤍

"Sorry I'm late, I found a dog..." A special story from one of our clients, Helen 🤍

I found Skye in the streets of Rangiora on a cold May evening back in 2009.

I was driving to some friends for a BBQ that night when I noticed some big eyes reflecting in my headlights from underneath a car parked on the side of West Belt Road.

Upon seeing her eyes, I turned my car around to ensure she wasn't injured.

I managed to reassure her and do a very quick and gentle vet check on her.

I then went to my car, opened it up and she leapt in with no hesitation like we had been together forever! After going door to door, no one knew where she’d come from.

So, onto the BBQ I went. My friends still tease me about this - "sorry I am late, I found a dog...".

I wasn't really in a position to take on a dog at the time (so I thought!) so I rang the local council to see if they could help try and reunite her with her rightful owner.

Skye spent 7 days in the Waimakariri Council pound with me ringing daily to see if anyone had come forward. After 7 days, she was mine.

I came up with the name Skye and she took to it like a proverbial duck to water.

The rest is history. Skye became my "heart dog"; a soul who changed everything and then, quietly, became everything to me.

Skye saw me through a lot of tough times in my life as a lady trying to run my own business and navigate life.

She went pretty much everywhere with me from Waiheke to Bluff and everywhere in between. She was with me throughout all the terrifying earthquakes we experienced here in Canterbury.

She checked out my (now) husband, giving him a lick of approval before eventually becoming our ring bearer at our wedding in 2016.

I wanted more time of course but not to be.

She is gone from this mortal coil but she shall never be forgotten and she remains my Skye.

To plagiarise the words of CS Lewis (1961, A Grief Observed) : "Her absence is like the Sky, spread over everything"

We’re often asked how many Reterniti Stones can be made from a person’s ashes. While it varies from person to person, we can give you a pretty good idea.

For families who wish to transform all of their loved one’s ashes, this often means a combination of two or three larger Reterniti Stones alongside some smaller Pebbles.

The choice is yours. You might choose a single Reterniti Stone, or have 25 Pebbles made to share with loved ones around the world.

Whatever feels right for you, we’ll work with you to honour your loved one, your way.

Part of what makes Reterniti Stones so special is the freedom they give you to choose.

While Reterniti Stones are solid, their natural composition means they can eventually return to the earth. This gives you the choice to keep your beloved pet or person close for as long as you wish, and let them return to nature when or if the time feels right 🤍

They don’t have to last for generations, but they can. And that’s the beauty of having a choice.

At Reterniti, we keep our Stonemaking process as natural as possible.

Handcrafted using your loved one’s ashes and a natural binder, Reterniti Stones can eventually return to the earth if that’s what you wish 🤍

How are Reterniti Stones made?

We get lots of questions about how our Stones are made. And understandably so! Reterniti Stones are a unique way to honour you loved one.

One common assumption is that we fire our Stones in a kiln. But that’s not the case!

Our Founder and Managing Director, Peter Russell, explains why in this video 🤍

Did you know this about Reterniti Stones?

16/10/2026

Every Reterniti Stone is individually handcrafted, making each one as unique as the loved one it honours. 🤍

Made from natural materials, no two Stones are ever exactly alike. From their organic shapes to the subtle variations, these little differences are what make each Reterniti Stone special.

We call it Perfectly Imperfect.

Gone but never forgotten 🤍

You will always hold them close in your heart. Reterniti Stones offer another way to hold and keep them close as you remember them.

12/10/2026

Reterniti Stones are a post-cremation innovation designed to give you a different way of honouring your loved one.

You might choose to add special engraving, bring the ashes of two loved ones together, or separate one set of ashes into multiple Stones to be shared between family.

There is no right or wrong way to remember someone. What matters is creating something that feels right for you, and for the memory you want to carry with you.

Sending your loved one’s ashes to us is a carefully considered process, designed to keep everything simple, secure and handled with the utmost care.
