Miniature Wooden Keepsake Urn

£50

Artist: Keith Jaques

Hand-turned in Keith Jaques’ workshop, this miniature wooden keepsake urn is shaped using traditional woodturning techniques and finished with natural oils and waxes to reveal the individual grain and character of the wood. Its contemporary, compact form offers an understated way to hold a small portion of ashes, a personal memento or another meaningful keepsake.

It can be a thoughtful choice for families who wish to divide ashes between several people, allowing each person to keep an individual keepsake close. A threaded metal closure, tightened with an Allen key (not included), keeps the contents securely enclosed. Supplied in a drawstring hessian bag.

Please note: Each piece of wood is unique but your keepsake will be broadly similar in appearance to the one pictured.
