UFO Urns

This collection is for the person who kept looking up, the one who kept the logbook and held the conviction that a universe this large was unlikely to be empty. These cast aluminum urns come in painted finishes or hand-applied enamel with hand-detailed silver bands, featuring designs of a flying saucer or a visitor beside it.

We offer two-tone engraving of a name and dates as an option. Available in full-size, sharing, and keepsake sizes, these pieces honor a life spent watching the sky.

The search was often the point, a way of engaging with the unknown through a lens of wonder. It was a commitment to the scientific pursuit of understanding, whether through the classification of close encounters or the careful study of sighting reports. This was a worldview built on the belief that the universe was far too vast to be empty, often discussed through the complexities of the Fermi paradox.

They approached the heavens with a steady curiosity rather than speculation. To them, the idea of disclosure was something to be discussed with a straight face and a thoughtful mind. You knew their conviction was not born of fear, but of a deep-seated belief that there was more to the story of our existence than what we see on the surface.

These urns are crafted from cast aluminum, provided in various painted finishes or a hand-applied enamel accented with hand-detailed silver bands. The imagery is integrated into the metal, offering two specific designs: a single flying saucer or a scene that includes a visitor beside the craft. Every piece is finished with a threaded screw-top lid and a felt base for stability.

This collection honors a life lived with eyes toward the stars. The designs represent the sky they spent their life watching, turning the vast expanse they loved into a tangible tribute. Because they always encouraged those around them to look up more often, these pieces serve as a quiet reminder of that enduring curiosity.

The collection comes in full-size, sharing, and keepsake sizes, so a family can choose one piece or several. For a more personal touch, we can engrave the name and dates directly into the surface using a two-tone technique, making the identity of your loved one a permanent part of the piece.

From 1947 to 1969, the United States Air Force maintained Project Blue Book at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, logging 12,618 reported sightings. Although the project closed on December 17, 1969, and its records were transferred to the National Archives in Washington, 701 sightings remain listed as unidentified.

The person this urn is for almost certainly had these same questions. For your family, the design on the urn is the open question they kept asking, and the night sky they never stopped searching.

Choosing the right size

Every design comes in the same three sizes. Here's how families use each one.

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.
