For the things you keep

The walnut eMemorybox

Sometimes those memories are hard to face, and a memory box can keep them safe until the time is right. But this is no ordinary memory box. Those mementos of a loved one are kept safely inside, but with a tap of the lid with our app, memories can be brought to life in the form of words, pictures, video and sound.

£69.99

Free UK postage. Connected to your loved one's eMemorybox before it leaves us.

How many

At the checkout you can tell us the name of the person the box remembers, so we can connect it before we post it.

  • A polished walnut box with a lined interior
  • Room for jewellery, photographs, letters, a lock of hair
  • Already connected to their eMemorybox. The app is free.

Why a box

The memories are there. You choose when.

Grief does not run to a timetable. There are days you want to hear their voice, and days you cannot. The box keeps everything safe for both kinds of day.

Sometimes it's not easy to face those memories. You're just not ready. But it's still nice to know they are there for when you're feeling the need to reminisce. So when you are good and ready, in the time and place of your own choosing, you can bring those memories to life simply by using our free app to open up those memories in the form of words, pictures, video and sound.

How the box works

A very simple process

  1. Tell us who the box is for

    We connect the box to their eMemorybox before it leaves us, so it arrives ready.

  2. Add their memories in the app

    Download our free app and use the unique code we send you to personalise your eMemorybox. Easily add the words, pictures, videos and sounds that bring them back. Take your time, and if you get it wrong, don't worry: you can add and delete as often as you like.

  3. Open it when you are ready

    Keep the mementos safe inside. When you want to hear their voice or see their face, hold your phone to the lid and their memories come to life on the screen.

Will it last?

Made to sit on a shelf for a lifetime

Locked away until you are ready

The memories are always available, but only when you choose to open them.

Private

The memories live in the app, not on a public website. Only the people you give the box to can open them.

Add to it for years

Their page is never finished. Add a memory on an anniversary, a photo you find in a drawer, a story a friend tells you.

A high quality box that will last

Solid walnut, polished, with a lined interior. Made to be handed down, with everything still inside it.

Questions people ask

Before you decide

What can I keep inside?

There is plenty of room for the things that help you remember: jewellery, photographs, or perhaps a lock of hair.

Do I have to look at the memories?

No. The memories are always there, but they stay locked away until you feel strong enough. You open them in your own time and place, with our free app.

Is it a good gift for someone who is grieving?

It was made for exactly that: someone who has lost a loved one and wants to keep the memories near, but sometimes struggles to face them.

Can I add memories over time?

Yes. Their eMemorybox is never finished. Add words, photos, videos and sounds whenever you want, for as long as you want.

Is the box personalised?

At the checkout you can give us the name of the person the box remembers and we connect it to their eMemorybox before we post it.

What the box opens

A box's memories stay private in the app, so we cannot show you a real one. This is a memorial page that Kelly's family chose to share, and it holds the same kind of memories: a film, the family's own words, a life in pictures. Shown with the family's permission.
