Handmade cremation urns: your questions answered
FAQs
Are your urns really handmade?
Yes. Every urn at Urn Studios is made by hand by an independent artist. No two pieces are exactly alike, so each urn is one of a kind.
Who makes the urns?
Our urns are made by independent artists and makers in the UK and the US. Each works in their own studio, in materials from ceramic to wood and metal.
How do I choose the right size urn?
It depends on how much of the ashes you want to keep. Full-size urns hold all of an adult's ashes, while smaller urns and keepsakes hold a portion, which suits sharing ashes between family members. Each product page lists the urn's capacity.
What are keepsake urns?
Keepsake urns are small urns that hold a portion of ashes. They let several family members keep a share, or sit alongside a larger urn or a scattering. Ours are handmade by the same artists as our full-size urns.
Do you also make pet urns?
Yes. Our pet urn collection is also entirely handmade by independent artists, so you can remember a companion with a piece made with the same care.
06 / The way we see it
Remembrance can be
as individual as life.
We believe a memorial can be a work of art. Something that brings warmth to a room, starts a conversation or simply sits quietly beside you. No rules about what it should look like. Just a connection that feels right.
