Every piece of wood is hand selected and crafted to display the finest qualities of which nature created. The sides of every urn are crafted from a single piece of solid wood that is mitered to create the desirable book matched look, which carries the grain and figure around to all four sides. Species of wood for this urn include the following: Top includes a Myrtle Wood picture frame surrounding the Figured Black Walnut center piece, while the sides are wrapped in Black Walnut and the bottom complements the top picture frame with Myrtle Wood as well. This urn opens from the bottom via four wood screws.

Sources in the funerary industry state that one pound of human or pet weight equals one cubic inch of cremated remains. If a person weighs 150 pounds, expect to receive about 150 cubic inches of ashes; or 10.5 cups. Cremated remains generally weigh between 3-7 pounds.
We offer this style urn in multiple different wood varieties. Please request a custom order if there is something specific you would prefer and we will try our best to meet you needs. This particular cremation urn is sized as an urn for human ashes, but may also be used as a pet urn if you so choose or we can craft a more appropriate sized keepsake for your pet's trip across the Rainbow Bridge.
Due to the individual qualities of natural wood products, urns may vary slightly from the photos in different lighting or due to different computer screen displays. We try to show the urn in a couple of different lights to showcase the different colors and patterns that emerge in different lighting situations. If you would like more photos of a particular urn, or a different angle, please just let us know.
