Losing your wife can mean losing the person that you have shared every ordinary day with, and the house can feel very quiet afterwards. Our memorial gifts for your wife are mainly made to keep at home, with our products ranging from keepsake boxes for jewellery, to lamps and tealights for the evenings, and more.

Nearly every product offered can include her name and dates, as well as a picture of her. If that sounds like something you’d like, take a look at our photo albums, lanterns, acrylic heart and plaques. For a bigger choice of boxes in different sizes, see our full collection, which has more designs that remember fond moments.

Keepsakes to Remember Your Wife at Home

Most of this range is designed to sit somewhere you’ll see it daily, with one stone plaque for her grave or garden.

  • Keepsake Boxes for Her Things: Photo boxes put your picture of her on a white lid, in a ribbon box from 19cm or a wooden box from 17cm. A laser-engraved box of 30 x 20 x 13cm suits larger mementos, while an engraved box sized for 6x4 photos and a 16cm-wide vintage dandelion box keep smaller ones.
  • Lamps and Evening Light: A 22cm USB lamp comes boxed with instructions. A glass remembrance light carries her photo and a verse. A photo lantern with a rose design, in bronze or white, prints her picture on two sides and a sentiment on the other two. A 15cm carved holder, shaped around a cut-out heart, is lit by the LED tealight supplied with it.
  • Frames for a Photo of You Both: A solid wood frame engraved “Wife” takes a 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10 picture. An oak-finish portrait frame and a dandelion frame with her name and dates printed below give a gentler look.
  • Gifts From Friends and Family: The Sorry for Your Loss plaque shows her photo on a 15cm sign with a wooden base, and a 10cm acrylic photo heart comes in a silk-lined box. Both are often sent to a husband or partner by people who knew her.
  • Her Grave or Garden: A 15cm stone plaque printed with her photo, name and a quote can be placed outdoors.
  • Albums and Books: A white album for 50 photos has her picture on the cover. Wooden guest books, a ring-bound scrapbook and sentiment albums such as “Forever In Our Hearts” hold everything from funeral messages to holiday snaps.

Finding the Right Memorial for Your Wife

Consider the time of day you miss her most, as  that usually tells you whether a lamp, a box or a frame will mean the most.

Words for Your Wife

Most husbands and partners write something only the two of them would understand, and short lines suit the space on a box lid or plaque. The plaques and photo lantern take your chosen name and date, while the engraved frames keep their own wording.

  • “My wife, my best friend, my home.”
  • “[Name], [years]. Always and forever.”
  • “You made every day better. Love always, [your name].”
  • “Married [number] years, loved for a lifetime.”
  • “Wherever I go, you come with me.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I give a man who has lost his wife?

The photo plaque reading “Sorry for Your Loss”, or the acrylic photo heart, lets him keep a picture of her in view. We can post it to him directly, and the box won’t contain a price.

Is there a memorial for my wife that doesn’t need a candle?

Yes. The carved tealight holder comes with an LED tealight, the photo lantern gives a battery-powered flame effect, and the 22cm lamp runs from USB.

Can I put a photo of us together on her keepsake box?

Yes. The photo keepsake boxes print whichever picture you upload, so a picture of you both works well.
