Crystal glass keepsake ashes urn 'Elegance'

An ornament that holds something of someone who will always matter

If you are looking for something that does more than store ashes, something that keeps a person's memory present in the quiet corners of your home, the Crystal glass keepsake ashes urn 'Elegance' is worth considering. Small in size, but considered in every detail.

Hand-formed crystal glass

The Elegance line draws its inspiration from the natural elements: earth, water, air and fire. The 'Elegance' takes that inspiration into a rounded, gently sculpted form finished in ivory tones with a soft mother-of-pearl sheen and fine surface relief. Crystal glass is an exacting material to work with. It demands patience and a steady hand, and that level of craft shows in the finished piece. The rounded form is a deliberate choice: closed, self-contained, a tangible circle that quietly holds the bond you shared.

How the ash reservoir works

Inside the keepsake urn is a sealed ash reservoir that holds a portion of cremation ashes. The urn is closed by means of a self-adhesive sealing plate. The glass is not transparent, so the ashes remain entirely private.

Practical things to know about crystal glass

Crystal glass is a fine material and does best in a fixed, stable position indoors, away from surfaces where it might easily be knocked. A windowsill, mantelpiece or bedside table all work well. The mother-of-pearl sheen stays at its best with gentle cleaning using a dry or very lightly dampened cloth. This urn is designed for indoor use only. Because each piece is made by hand, small variations in the sheen and relief are natural and expected. No two are exactly alike, which means the one you choose is, in the most literal sense, the only one of its kind.

A quiet, steady presence

The ivory tones and gentle lustre of this mini urn for ashes suit almost any interior. It holds its place on a shelf or surface as something considered rather than conspicuous. People who see it may simply register it as a beautiful object. You do not need to explain it.

If you would like to make the space around it more personal, placing the 'Elegance' beside a photograph, a small object or a flower that meant something to the person you are remembering can turn a shelf into something more deliberate. A place you have arranged, at your own pace, in your own way.
