Stainless steel keepsake urn | Cremation ashes mini urn

Small in size, complete in meaning

Choosing a keepsake urn is not a lesser choice. It is a considered one. You are keeping something close, in your daily life, in a form that holds what matters. This stainless steel mini urn for ashes is built for exactly that: strong, understated, and made to last.

Grade 316 stainless steel

This keepsake urn is made from RVS 316 stainless steel, an alloy of iron, chromium, nickel and carbon. Grade 316 offers significantly greater corrosion resistance than the more common grade 304, which means this urn holds its quality indoors and outdoors, year after year. The brushed surface finish catches light at different angles, giving the piece a quiet sheen that never draws attention to itself for the wrong reasons.

The butterfly as a personal symbol

The butterflies on this cube-shaped urn are not decorative filler. The butterfly is a creature that withdraws completely, transforms, and emerges changed. If the person you are remembering moved through life with that kind of resilience or quiet strength, the butterfly here is not a cliché. It is a point of recognition. Laser engraving is available as an option, allowing you to add a personal image to the surface in greyscale or colour, so the urn also tells something of who is held inside it.

Practical assurance, from material to seal

A keepsake urn for ashes carries a real responsibility, and this one is made with that in mind. It is handcrafted in the Netherlands by specialists, with a ten-year guarantee on the finished product. Lead time is four to six weeks from order.

Weather resistance and care

Grade 316 stainless steel is resistant to moisture, temperature change and prolonged outdoor placement. This urn needs no treatment or protective coating. It performs equally well on a windowsill with variable light or at an outdoor memorial spot in a garden. The material maintains itself.

Sealing, filling and peace of mind

The urn seals with a double-sided closure tape with high-bond adhesion, rated to resist considerable pull force. The seal is fully airtight. All accessories needed to fill the urn are included, among them an ash bag and a cleaning cloth to ensure the interior rim is clean and dry before sealing. You can fill the urn yourself using the ash bag as a funnel, or place the ashes directly without the bag. If you would prefer, the crematorium or funeral director can fill it on your behalf. Should the urn ever need to be reopened, this can be done by a technician. You have 30 days to return the urn if your circumstances change before it has been personalised.

Laser engraving: making the urn yours

Laser engraving is available on this cremation urn and is applied using a computer-guided beam that marks the stainless steel surface with fine precision. The result can be rendered in greyscale or colour. The sharper the resolution of the image you provide, the cleaner the engraving. After placing your order you will be guided through the upload process.

What you can have engraved

• A portrait photograph in greyscale or colour
• A handwritten signature, a personal drawing, or a shared symbol
• An image that reflects who your loved one was

Questions people often ask

Can I place the ashes directly in the urn, or is the ash bag required?

Both are fine. The ash bag is included and can be used as a funnel to make filling easier, but it is not compulsory. Because this urn is made from grade 316 stainless steel and seals to a fully airtight standard, placing ashes directly is straightforward and secure. That said, if there is any possibility the ashes may need to be moved to a different resting place in the future, using the ash bag makes that process simpler.

What is covered by the guarantee?

This keepsake urn carries a ten-year guarantee on the finished product and its closure.
