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 Midnight Blue finish provides a sophisticated and calm contrast to the playful spirit of the hippo. This color suits someone who kept the stuffed hippo long past childhood.
Quality features of this urn:
• durable cast aluminum with a painted finish
• threaded screw-top lid
• felt base to protect display surfaces
• complimentary velour drawstring bag included
The hippo urn for ashes holds a very small portion of cremated remains - roughly the size of a medicine bottle. This allows multiple family members to each keep a small token amount close to them. Each piece comes with a complimentary velour drawstring bag, and the Sharing and Individual sizes are also available.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
