Adult Urns

Choosing a single vessel to hold everything is a simple, complete way to honor a life. It offers a sense of togetherness, ensuring that every part of a person is kept within one container. For those you have lost, this completeness reflects the entirety of the person they were.

It is often misunderstood that a person's weight determines the size needed for an urn. In reality, the volume required depends on the skeleton, as soft tissue and water do not persist after cremation. While build and height are the true measures, our standard capacity is designed to serve almost every individual. Just as they were defined by their presence rather than a number on a scale, their remains are held with an appropriate measure of respect.

Our collection offers a wide variety of finishes, from solid painted colors to hand-applied enamel. Some pieces feature intricate engraved artwork, while others remain plain and understated. You might find that a specific hue or a particular design captures the essence of their character, providing a visual tribute to the spirit they possessed.

To make the tribute permanent, we engrave the name and dates directly into the metal. This two-tone process ensures the lettering becomes a physical part of the urn itself. By cutting these details into the surface, their identity is etched into the very substance of the memorial.

For those who were notably tall or had a broader frame, our solid hardwood options provide a larger capacity. If you find that the amount of remains you receive is more than you expected, please reach out to us for guidance in selecting the right fit. We are here to help you find the vessel that is most suitable for your needs.

What remains after cremation consists of bone fragments, primarily calcium phosphates. The average weight of adult cremated remains is between four and six pounds, which represents a tiny percentage of the body's original mass.

This explains why a person's physical stature has little bearing on the vessel they require, and why a traditional full size is suitable for nearly everyone. It ensures that the container you choose is a worthy tribute to the one you hold dear.

If the person you remember was characterized by a vivid personality, the hand-applied colors or detailed artwork in this collection may feel appropriate. If they were more reserved, a simple, unadorned design might better reflect their presence. The choice of an adult urn is a deeply personal one, rooted in your own connection to their memory.

Whether you seek a piece with intricate details or one of quiet simplicity, our goal is to provide a steady vessel for what remains. Should you find that the amount of remains exceeds the standard capacity, we invite you to contact us for assistance with sizing. We are here to help you find a fitting tribute.
