Cremation has become more commonplace in recent years and, as a result, there has been an increase in the availability of different types of urns. There are options for a variety of different aesthetic preferences. Some stately urns can work well as a focal point in a permanent location in the home, while other urns can actually be worn as ornate jewelry. Here’s a look at six different types of urns to choose from.
Marble
These urns are representative of stateliness and a dignified life lived with great refinement and elegance.
Cast Bronze
This type of urn has a classic, timeless appearance and some look as though they were taken straight from Greek antiquity.
Ceramic
Ceramic urns are reflective of a creative soul, and thus make a great testament to lives lived artistically.
Biodegradable Urns
For the nature lover who wants their remains to be returned organically to the earth, this is an excellent option.
