Handmade motorcycle gas tank urn for ashes 'Black and Orange'

For someone who lived life on his own terms

A motorcycle was never just transport. For some people it was freedom, identity, a way of moving through the world that said something true about who they were. If you are looking for a cremation urn that reflects that honestly, this handmade glassfibre urn for ashes is worth your attention.

Crafted individually by professional artists

Every urn in this range is made and finished by hand, one at a time, by professional artists. No two are identical. The form is drawn from a motorcycle petrol tank, a shape instantly recognisable to anyone who understood what riding meant to him. The black and orange colouring is bold and deliberate, chosen to carry character rather than sit quietly on a shelf. The glassfibre construction gives the urn its solidity and allows the detail of the design to come through clearly. Any small variations in finish are the natural result of handwork, the mark of two hands rather than a machine, and that distinction matters.

The bond you shared, held somewhere visible

You know what the bike meant to him. The weekend rides, the early mornings, the sound of the engine you could always pick out. This urn for ashes gives that part of his life somewhere to be, on a shelf or surface in a room where it feels right.

Quiet recognition, no explanation needed

The design carries its own meaning for anyone who knew him. There is nothing to decipher and nothing to justify. It simply reflects something real about his life, and that is what a good urn does.

Suitable with or without an ash bag

This urn can be used with or without an ash bag, whichever suits your preference and circumstances. The base cap can be sealed with adhesive if you wish to secure the urn permanently.

Practical considerations for this material

Glassfibre is a strong, lightweight material and well suited to an object that is handled carefully and kept in a stable place. This urn is designed for indoor use. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can affect colour intensity over time, so it is worth placing it away from windows or areas with strong, sustained light. Kept on a dry, stable surface indoors, the depth of the black and the clarity of the orange will remain as the maker intended.

Each piece is genuinely one of a kind

Because production is entirely by hand, output is limited and no two urns leave the workshop in exactly the same state. The one you receive will not exist anywhere else in quite the same form. For many people, that carries its own quiet significance.
