These small decorative urns are made for storing small amounts of ashes after cremation to give to surviving family members and friends. They are masterfully hand crafted and finished so no two urns will be the same. They can store up to 3 cubic inches of ash. The urn has a matching screw on lid to protect the ashes and also includes a Velvet carry case to protect the urns if stored away. The base of the urn is covered in Velvet as well to help cushion the base and the whole urn is finished in a glossy coating. It is not water tight so avoid burying. It is for display purposes indoors only.
