Exploring Options After Deciding on a Horse Cremation
Deciding between a horse cremation or a burial is a personal decision, but it is a good idea to explore all of your options before you decide which is best for you. In fact, you may be surprised to learn that there are actually quite a few options that you can explore when you choose to cremate your horse. Here are just a few of the options to consider:
- Purchase a decorative box for the ashes that can be placed somewhere in your home, barn or other meaningful location.
- Place the ashes in a keepsake item created specifically to hold a small amount of ashes, such as a pendant for a bracelet or necklace.
- Transform the ashes into a crystal that can be put into a pendant or a ring. The final color of the crystal will depend upon the elements contained in the ashes when making the crystal.
- Change the ashes to a diamond that can be put into a pendant or ring. Since bodies are made of carbon, the ashes can actually be used to create a diamond. This is a very expensive option, however, with a .25 carat typically costing a few thousand dollars. Color choices typically include blue, green, red, white and yellow.

Generally speaking, you will have two options when having your horse cremated. One option is to have your horse’s remains cremated privately, which means your horse will be individually cremated so you may receive the ashes and place them in an urn. Another option is to have your horse cremated in a communal cremation.
