Why should you choose a modern urn?

- Biodegradable urns: Perfect for those who were environmentally conscious, these urns are made from sustainable materials that gracefully return to the earth.

What size modern urn do I need?
Modern urns come in various sizes, from small keepsake urns that hold a portion of ashes to larger containers designed for all the remains. The size you require depends on your intentions, whether the urn will be a personal keepsake, shared among family, or used for a ceremonial scattering. Typically, urn capacity is measured in cubic inches, and a general rule is that one pound of weight prior to cremation equates to one cubic inch of ashes.

Many contemporary urns offer options for engraving, allowing families to inscribe names, dates, or personal messages. Customisation can extend beyond text, with possibilities for colour selection, the inclusion of hand-painted artwork, or the integration of specific symbols and motifs that reflect the interests or personality of the departed. This level of personalisation ensures that the urn not only serves as a dignified resting place but also as a unique tribute to a life well-lived.
