The Coast Guard memorial urn honors those who lived by the principle of always going out - the SAR veterans, rescue swimmers, small boat station operators, and boarding team members who put others' safety above their own without a second thought. Coast Guard service is built around a promise made in rough water: that no one who needs help will be left without an answer. The semper paratus devotees who filled this role carried that standard into their families and communities long after their active years ended. This urn is for the families who understood that their person did not simply have a job - they had a conviction, and it shaped everything around them.
The natural grain and warmth of the solid alder wood offer a sense of permanence and strength, mirroring the steadfast nature of those who served. This Coast Guard cremation urn provides a dignified and enduring tribute for a person who stood firm in the face of any storm.
Quality features of this urn:
• solid alder hardwood
• bottom-loading base plate secured with four screws
• X-ray scannable and TSA-compliant for air travel
This vessel is designed to hold the complete remains of an adult. This urn fills from the bottom - start by setting it upside down on a soft cloth. Simply remove the four revealed screws to place the ashes inside, then secure the base back in place.

Carefully lay the urn on it's top. Set into the base you will see four screws. Carefully remove each screw. The base of the urn can then be picked up and carefully set aside. Place the remains and optional mementos inside the urn. Carefully replace the base on the urn and then reinsert the screws. Tighten them until they are tight but there is no need to overtighten them.

The military memorial box was beautiful. We got many compliments. I may order another to keep at home.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It was our honor to craft this Celtic Cross urn that meets cemetery requirements for all service branches.
I am so delighted with the beautiful results of this urn for my husband. He chose the Celtic cross for his headstone so I picked the same design for his urn. I was surprised at how quickly it arrived after I ordered it. I appreciate how nicely it was packed to ensure it was not damaged in transit. Thank you.
Amazingly fast shipping and a beautiful wood urn.
I'm proud to support a company with made in the U.S.A. products. I know my aunt would have wanted that too.
Even the funeral home commented on how beautiful the urn was. Thank you.

Beautifully etched logo honoring my husband of 44 years. Building race engines for modified race cars was his retirement hobby. He had untold victories and the urn was a perfect tribute to him and his talent.

It was our honor to create this memorial for you and to help honor your husbands passion. Thank you for the opportunity to be of service.
My husband was a career mechanic and spent his retirement years building motors for race cars. I used his motto in lieu of name on line above dates, then had his name engraved under the flags. So perfect!! Quality and workmanship on this urn is exceptional.

Thank you for your feedback. It was our honor to create a memorial for you.
I shared pictures of this urn online because we cant have a proper party yet and the response was amazing. I keep telling my friends and family it is even more beautiful in person, the details are really sharp. I feel I really made the right decision with my husbands memorial. He loved his bike so much and I miss riding with him already.

Which size do I need?
Individual
Full size · Approx. 10" high
Holds all of an adult's remains, the same full-size memorial a funeral home provides. Choosing one urn for one person? This is the one.
Sharing
Mid size · Approx. 6" high
Holds a meaningful portion of the remains, measured in cups, not all of them. Choose this when dividing ashes between households, or keeping some close after scattering the rest.
Keepsake
Pocket size · Approx. 3" high
Holds a small token: a few spoonfuls. A personal remembrance: one for each family member, or something small to keep on a shelf or bedside table.
Keeping our sizing simple allows for worry-free shopping and a consistent canvas for your special engraving. Each cremation urn has a max size listed in its description. Contact us with specific questions regarding which cremation urn best fits your needs.
Colors & Premium Colors
Premium Colors
Enamel & hand-hammered detail
Our premium urns are finished in hand-applied enamel: glossier, deeper and more luminous than standard paint, with a rich, jewel-like depth of color and added durability. They are then adorned with intricate hand-hammered metal detailing: ornate, sculpted bands worked by hand around the lid and shoulder that catch the light. The result is an elevated, one-of-a-kind memorial you can feel as well as see.
Colors
Classic painted finish
Our classic painted finish over solid metal: a smooth, even color offered across our widest range of shades. The understated look keeps the focus on your engraving and artwork, holds its color over time, and suits most memorials. A timeless, versatile choice that pairs beautifully with any sentiment or design.
