Grey cremation urn for ashes 'Square' made form fibreglass

A quiet, steady presence in your home

Some urns ask to be noticed. This one simply stays. The 'Square' cremation urn in grey is designed for people who want something that holds its place in a room without dominating it. The clean geometry and muted grey sit comfortably in almost any interior, present and considered, a quiet reminder of the bond you shared.

How this urn is made

The production process behind the 'Square' is more involved than it might appear. A framework is cast first from glassfibre, resin and plaster. Two or three thick coats of lacquer, each mixed with plaster, are then applied in sequence, with the urn rinsed in water between each coat. Colour is added next, followed by a coat of varnish, then a second. After that final coat, the surface is levelled and hand-polished. Each of those stages is a deliberate step, and the result reflects that care.

Light to handle, solid in use

Glassfibre produces an urn that is notably light without any loss of strength or durability. The finish holds its quality over time, which matters when an object is going to live in your home for years. The urn accepts ashes with or without an ash bag, so you can make the choice that suits your circumstances.

Practical things worth knowing

If you have questions about how this material performs day to day, the answers below should help.

Care and material considerations

Glassfibre is a robust material that handles everyday indoor use well. The polished lacquer surface protects what is beneath it, but it does have limits. Keep the urn away from prolonged moisture and clean it only with a dry cloth or one that is very slightly damp. Abrasive cleaners or rough cloths will damage the finish over time. This urn for ashes is made for indoor use only and should not be placed in a conservatory or any space prone to condensation or temperature fluctuation.

Personalisation options

The flat grey planes of the 'Square' lend themselves well to personalisation. An engraving plate can be added if you would like to include a name, a date or a short phrase. Beyond that, the form works naturally alongside a framed photograph, a stone or crystal that carried meaning, or a single flower that mattered to him or her. A neutral shape becomes a personal one through what you choose to place beside it.
