Artist: Marcus Steel

Created by Marcus Steel, Treasure House II is a sculptural metal cremation urn conceived as a place of safekeeping. Its green surface and ascending stepped base create a sense of elevation and calm, while a circular detail at the front suggests light and openness. Within, a hidden inner vessel holds a small amount of ashes or cherished mementos. A work that bridges architecture and memory, a timeless way to hold ashes and celebrate a life remembered.
