Select a Hippo Sharing Urn to create a personal memorial that is a step larger than a keepsake urn but more petite than a full size urn. Bold, attractive colors offer sharp contrast with the engraved text and detailed artwork.
Sharing urns are an option for anyone who is sharing remains amongst family or close friends. They can be used in place of a keepsake urn for a portion of the ashes. Larger than the standard keepsake size, they are able to hold much more ashes and allow for the engraving to be twice the size.
For families looking to split remains, this will hold one quarter to one fifth of the typical individual remains. We recommend at least one Individual sized urn to be used to hold additional remains.

A sharing urn is our mid size, about 6 inches high. It 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. It is not a keepsake, and it is not a full-size individual urn.
A keepsake is pocket size, about 3 inches high. It holds a small token: a few spoonfuls. A personal remembrance for each family member, or something small for a shelf or bedside table. A sharing urn is larger: a real home-display piece with more room for names, dates, and artwork you can actually read more easily. They are two sizes, not two names for the same urn.
A meaningful portion, measured in cups, not all of an adult’s remains. Each sharing urn lists its max size in the product description. If you are choosing one urn for one person, that is an individual urn (full size, about 10 inches high). If you only need a small token, that is a keepsake.
Yes. A common plan is one individual urn, a sharing urn for the household that wants a piece on the shelf, and keepsakes for everyone who wants a small remembrance. The funeral home will divide and transfer the ashes if you would rather not do it yourself. If you are unsure which mix fits your family, contact us. We do this with families every day.
An individual urn (about 10" tall) holds all of an adult's remains, the same full-size memorial a funeral home provides. A sharing urn (about 6" tall, from $64.95) holds a meaningful portion, measured in cups, for dividing ashes between households. A keepsake (about 3" tall, from $27.95) holds a few spoonfuls, a personal remembrance for each family member.

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.
