More about Ceramic Cremation Ash Urns

The spirit and memories of your loved one are eternal. While grieving the loss is never easy, you can help keep their legacy alive with the proper cremation urn. Ceramic vessels are an ideal choice for keeping the ashes of your loved one. Earthen vessels have been used since the beginning of time for their practical use, their longevity and their aesthetics. Ceramic ash urns are exquisite works of art with the power to conjure up memories of eternality. 

Pottery has been used throughout human history as discovered in many archeological digs around the world. While styles and processes have varied through the centuries, the basics have not changed. Earthen material is shaped, fired and glazed to create vessels that can withstand the test of time. When formed into a cremation urn, the glazes and shapes of the ceramic pottery urns for ashes can be as unique as the person whose remains are stored within. 

Our pottery urns come in a variety of sizes. Small or keepsake urns hold a token amount of ashes. Regular sized or medium containers are designed for the remains of one person. Large or companion urns have the capacity for the ashes of two humans. 

Many pottery urns are so exquisite that they will make beautiful decorative statements when kept in your home or in a mausoleum. Pottery urns for ashes can also be interred or buried in the ground if that is what the family desires. Below are some of our cherished urns made from ceramic pottery in different traditions and glazes.
