Anything minimalist and not overly extravagant. Black stones are especially appropriate. If the decease was very close to you, wearing a piece of jewelry that belonged to them might be a good way to perpetuate their memory.

Historically, some mourning jewelry was made using hair from the deceased. This was common practice in the Victorian era when locks of hair would be enclosed in lockets or ring compartments. Or, strands of hair would be woven into the jewelry piece itself. It was also common to engrave the jewelry with the name of the loved one and the date of their death.
