Reincarnation by design

reborn_1

For people who’ve lost a pet, it can be a difficult phase to get through. Especially explaining it to children can be extremely difficult and heart-rending. Reborn doesn’t make the grief go away, but helps gain closure, and transition the love from pet, to plant. Reborn is an egg that contains soil, a seedling, and the departed pet’s ashes wrapped within a porous, fragile shell. The shell is placed in the soil and in no time, the seedling hatches out of it, becoming a reincarnated embodiment of the deceased pet’s spirit.

An unusual and wonderful way to help children come to terms with the death of a pet, and gracefully teach them about life after death.

Designers: ZhiXuan Chen, Ye Fan, Li Liang & SiChen Liu.
