Urn for Ashes 'Silenzio' old wood

Silence that stays with you

Some objects carry more than words can. The Silenzio is a wooden cremation urn shaped by nature itself: no two are the same, because no two pieces of wood ever are.

Character that comes from the material

What sets this urn apart is what the wood brings on its own. The fine grain and flame figuring, with their shifting tones and markings, are not applied or added. They are already in the timber. That makes every piece distinctly its own. The design is deliberately understated, modern but not cold. If you are looking for something that holds a quiet presence in a room, the Silenzio is well suited to that.

For use with an ashes bag

The Silenzio is designed for use with an ashes bag only. Before closing the urn, please ensure the ashes bag is properly sealed. This keeps everything secure and in place over time.

The bond you shared, reflected in what you choose

Wood responds to touch in a way that stone and metal do not. When you hold the Silenzio, it takes on the temperature of your hands. That is not incidental. It is one of the things that makes wood feel so different to other materials, and so right for this purpose. The connection you had with the person you have lost does not need explaining. But an object that responds to your presence in a small, physical way says something true about what you meant to each other.

Personalisation options

The Silenzio already carries its own character through the grain and figuring of its wood. If you would like to add something personal, consider placing a photograph, a short poem or a handwritten note alongside the urn, perhaps on a small accompanying card or panel. Over time, the space where you keep the urn can become somewhere that quietly tells the story of who your loved one was.

Caring for a wooden urn indoors

Wood is a natural material and asks for a little thought about where it lives. The Silenzio is designed for indoor use only. Moisture, direct sunlight and significant changes in temperature will affect the surface and structure over time. Choose a stable, dry spot away from radiators and windows that receive strong direct light. Looked after in this way, the urn will hold its appearance and integrity for the long term.

What to expect from the Silenzio

• Every urn has a unique grain pattern and flame figuring formed naturally in the timber
• The wood responds to the temperature of your hands when held, giving it a distinctly personal quality
• The clean, modern form sits comfortably in a contemporary interior
