Keepsake Urn • Crystal Lilac

£37

1 in stock

Artist: Raquel Acosta

Handmade by Raquel Acosta, this keepsake urn is wheel-thrown in a minimal, lidded form and finished with a crystalline glaze. The surface develops naturally in the kiln, where mineral crystals grow within the glaze during cooling, creating delicate, organic patterning.

Crystal Lilac has a soft and comforting tone. Small enough to keep close, this ceramic urn offers a gentle way to hold a portion of ashes, with a finish that feels personal and artistic.

Please note: Images show an example of the finish. As crystalline glazes develop uniquely during the kiln cycle, each urn will have its own subtle patterning.

Raquel Acosta

Raquel Acosta is a ceramic artist based in Carshalton, England, working from her small garden studio. After leaving a career as a data analyst, she was drawn to clay for its slower, tactile rhythm, building a practice rooted in making by hand and refining forms on the potter’s wheel.

Her work is defined by clean, minimal silhouettes and a close focus on glaze chemistry, with a particular interest in reactive and crystalline glazes. Crystalline glazes develop through a precise firing and cooling process that allows mineral crystals to form within the glaze, creating organic patterning that’s never exactly repeated. Presented by Urn Studios as handmade ceramic cremation urns for ashes, Raquel’s pieces balance clarity of form with the natural variation of the kiln.
