Our Story

How we memorialize something reflects how we valued it.

The objects that exist to mark that grief- the ones you find when you go looking- don’t do justice to what they were to us. 

We’re building Remanē because we believe animals deserve the same kind of beauty that’s usually reserved for people. Not just a paw print on a heart, or a cartoon animal designed for a gift shop shelf.

Remanē. From the Latin remanēre: to remain, to stay, to endure.

A note from our founder

“Remanē started with grief.

When my Doberman, Asterix, died, I went looking for something to hold him that would reflect what he meant to me. His ashes sat for months in the plain wooden box from the vet, because nothing I found felt like enough. So I made him something instead. 

We’re building Remanē because we believe the animals we love deserve beauty and meaning in their memorials — and because no one should have to search for a way to keep their loved one close, only to come up short."

- Erin, Remanē Founder

A dark brown Doberman dog rests its head on a dark gray plush pet pillow on a white bed, with a softly blurred window in the background.

Remanē was built for the people who understand, without explanation, why this matters.

Every animal is different. If you have something specific in mind, get in touch.
