This OneWorld Memorials Ceramic Urn features a rich, natural burgundy hue, a matte surface and lovely etchings across the lid and body of the urn. This vessel will look great within any farmhouse modern setting. You can choose a little bronze pendant to place around the urn's neck, which will bear your loved one's name, years, or a unique message. The urn's underside has a threaded entrance for enhanced security and airtight storage. Its dimensions are 9.6 inches high by 7.9 inches long and 7.9 inches broad, making it small enough to fit on any shelf yet large enough to hold the ashes comfortably.Ceramics are made by combining earthenware ingredients, such as clay and powders, with water and molding them into desired forms. Often covered in a waterproof glaze, ceramic pottery is constructed in differing ways. Most often thrown on a potter’s wheel, it can also be hand molded into varied shapes and then fired in a kiln, first to harden the clay into pottery, then to set the glaze and bring out its vibrant colors. Glazes, only after firing, become the spectacular hues seen on each finished product.
