The hippo memorial urn is for the people the hippo always belonged to - the ones whose favorite animal it was from the moment they could say the word, the ones with a whole shelf of them because every relative knew exactly what to buy, the animal lovers who went to see them at the zoo or in the wild, and the ones who filled every room they walked into and were, affectionately, not to be crossed. The hippo looks comic and is one of the animals nobody sensible approaches, which is exactly the joke a lot of families are making. The pink on a hippo's skin is not blood but a natural sunscreen, a fact the people who loved them always enjoyed correcting. This hippopotamus cremation urn is a tribute to the animal that was always theirs, and to the room they filled.
The purple luster finish provides a vibrant color that echoes a spirited energy. This bold color captures the essence of a joy that was felt deeply, much like the warmth of a laugh that carried.
