Driftwood Sagger Urn Natural • Ceramic Urn for Ashes

£270

Artist: Róbert Bende 

Created by Robert Bende, this ceramic cremation urn unites the purity of unglazed white clay with the wild form of natural driftwood. Layers of terra sigillata are polished by hand until the surface feels like worn stone. During the sagger firing, mineral-soaked straw and sawdust leave unpredictable marks, soft ivory, bronze, and smoke-blue tones that flow across the form. A unique handmade urn for ashes, shaped by fire, air, and chance.
