Mermaid Urns

The mermaid is a figure that belongs inherently to the sea, navigating the currents as a permanent resident rather than a visitor. She is at home in the depths, moving through the water with a natural grace that makes the ocean her true domain.

This emblem is for the person who felt that same sense of belonging when they were near the tide. For the swimmer, the diver, or the one who was always first in and last out of the waves, the mermaid serves as a quiet recognition of a life lived in harmony with the water.

To provide a lasting tribute, these urns are cast from aluminum, a material chosen for its enduring quality. Each piece is designed with a threaded screw-top lid and includes a felt base to ensure it remains steady and secure.

The finishes available offer different ways to honor that connection to the sea. You may choose from a range of painted colors, or select the enamel line, which features hand-applied enamel and hand-detailed silver bands of pierced metalwork.

These textures provide a tactile way to hold a memory. Whether through the solid depth of a painted hue or the intricate detail of the silver bands, the piece captures the unique character of the one you remember.

The collection is designed to accommodate different ways of remembering. We offer full-size urns, as well as keepsake urns and sharing urns, allowing the memory of a loved one to be held by a single person or shared among those who swam beside them.

To make the piece truly personal, we off the option of engraving their name and dates directly into the surface using a two-tone engraving technique. This ensures that their identity is cut into the metal itself, making their name a permanent part of the mermaid artwork.

Since 1913, a bronze Little Mermaid has kept watch over the harbor in Copenhagen, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's 1837 fairy tale. More than a century on, she remains one of the most visited monuments in Denmark, a small, patient figure by the water that people cross the world to see.

Let this steadfast figure serve as a gentle reminder of your loved one and their deep affinity for the tides.

If your loved one was someone who found their truest peace where the waves meet the shore, these mermaid urns may serve as a fitting tribute. Whether you choose a full-sized piece or a smaller keepsake to hold close, the weight of the cast aluminum provides a steady presence for their memory.

The choice of a painted finish or the more intricate silver-banded enamel is a personal one, as is the specific identity engraved into the metal. Ultimately, these pieces are intended for those who lived with a spirit as boundless as the sea, offering a way to honor a life defined by the water.
