Fiberglass urn 'Cacao'

A quiet presence in your home

If you are looking for an urn that holds its place without dominating a room, the glassfibre urn 'Cacao' offers exactly that balance. Its deep brown tone is grounded and calm, the kind of colour that belongs in a home where memories have a natural place.

Craftsmanship visible in every layer

Glassfibre urns are lighter than they look and built to last, and the 'Cacao' reflects both qualities. The manufacturing process begins with a cast framework of glassfibre, resin and plaster. Two or three thick coats of lacquer mixed with plaster are then applied, and the urn is rinsed with water between each one. Colour is added next, followed by a coat of varnish, then another. After the final varnish coat, the surface is smoothed by hand and polished to an even finish.

Each stage requires the previous layer to dry fully before the next is applied, and the hand-finishing happens more than once. That process gives the surface its consistent depth and is what separates this urn from anything turned out by machine.

Brown as a colour of rootedness

Brown is the colour of wood, of earth, of things that endure. If the bond you shared was defined by steadiness, reliability or a love of the natural world, this colour speaks to that without needing a single word of explanation from you. It simply reads that way when you look at it.

Personalisation options

An engraving plate can be added to this urn, giving you the option to include a name, dates, or a short phrase that reflects who the person was. It is a small detail that makes the urn specific to the person you are remembering, and gives that place in your home its own meaning.

Practical considerations for indoor use

The 'Cacao' is designed for indoor use. The polished lacquer finish holds up well in a normal domestic environment and keeps its appearance over many years. Household humidity will not cause discolouration or surface damage, though it is worth keeping the urn away from direct sunlight over long periods, as prolonged exposure can gradually affect the depth of colour.

Compatible with or without an ash bag

This cremation urn works with or without an ash bag, so you can choose whichever arrangement feels right for you without needing any additional fittings or modifications. The base cap can be sealed with adhesive once the urn is in place, and the urn for ashes comes with a 24-month guarantee.
