Keepsake Urns

Keepsake urns a beautiful and unique way to celebrate the life of a loved one who has passed away. Unlike the traditional full-sized urn, these are meant to hold a much smaller portion of cremated remains so that many in a family or social network can each have a tangible reminder of their loved one.

Today many families are spread far geographically and choosing this option can act as a bond through the grieving period. They can also be used to hold back a small portion of ashes if the deceased individual has requested that the majority of their ashes be spread over a special location. Because of their smaller size, these can be a more cost effective option.

Materials range from marble to bronze and granite and biodegradable options such as paper. They come in any color; so can truly be chosen to reflect the life of your loved one. Many retailers offer a wide variety of pre-made urns ranging from traditional options to those that are appropriate for the “free-spirit” in your life.

If a ready made design doesn't suit your needs, many memorial artisans can be contracted to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Opting for an urn to hold a beloved ones remains after cremation is a lovely way to honor their individual spirit.
