Keepsake Domes
Glass Domes can create a Save Place for you MemorabiliaThroughout our lives, we are constantly finding and collecting small keepsakes, tokens of special moments we experience. Whether it be a seashell collected on an unforgettable walk on the beach, or a souvenir from a wonderful vacation, these small trinkets and findings are of greater value than we take them for. Thornton Wilder, novelist and playwright, once said, "We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures". This quote is quite touching, as we often overlook how these small collections of our own experiences can be heartwarming, conjuring up memories of times long past. The longer that these little remembrances are in existence, the more valuable they become to us, as they keep a moment of the past alive, for us to revisit for many years to come. Keepsake domes offer a way to protect and preserve those treasured mementos in a manner that they can be displayed at all times, if one wishes. These wonderful little domes are made of a two-part construction, which is an elegant glass top that sets onto a metal or wood base. The bases of the domes are available in a variety of wood options, such as walnut, oak, and even in beautifully finished metals, such as polished brass. The variety of base options helps ensure that the dome will fit in with, and compliment, any existing decor. They are also available in a variety of sizes, with heights ranging from three inches, to twenty inches. The smaller domes are perfect to accommodate small figurines or similar remembrances, creating a dust free environment to protect refined details that may, otherwise, be difficult to dust or clean. The small domes are also ideal to display a keepsake cremation urn, as it provides a graceful and respectful look, which is understandably desired, when showcasing such a special tribute. The large urn can also be used to hold and protect any item, such as a sculpture, or even a cremation urn. They make ideal gifts, as many will appreciate the functionality and beauty of the piece, and will be delighted that they can elegantly display their treasured remembrances. There is truly no joy like reliving precious memories with friends and family, reminiscing and enjoying the experiences shared. Often, this is done by looking through family photo albums, or perhaps, memory boxes containing treasured keepsakes, gathered and stored with love. Keepsake domes allow us to display a treasured remembrance in a way that it is still protected, which can create amazing conversation starters, and be a wonderful reminder of a peaceful memory, to brighten any day. Alternatively, they can be utilized to protect an important piece, such as delicate sculptures or cremation urns, giving them an elegant touch of dignity. Regardless of the use, these wonderful domes will help preserve and share a moment of the past, for all to enjoy. |
