Ashes memorial jewellery - glass or resin

My husbands funeral is in three weeks and the undertaker has mentioned memorial jewellery. She has said if I get a collection tube from the jewellery manufacturer she will put some of my husbands ashes into the tube so I do not have to do this at a later date.
I am not 100% sold on the idea - mostly because of the cost of the rings but I love the idea of having part of him with me for the rest of my life which puts the cost into perspective. I am confused over the resin and glass options. Has anyone purchased memorial jewellery? I have found articles about how bad resin is and how bad glass is but 'shock' the antiglass articles are by resin manufactures and the antiresin are by the glass manufacturers! I am thinking of a ring so scratching will be an issue. Cost wise there is not much between resin and glass. If anyone has any experiences I would be very grateful to hear them. Thank you.
