Its marble glossy look is as elegant as it is bold and projects a luxurious appearance while maintaining an affordable price tag.

Since cultured marble urns aren’t natural marble, the look is achieved with a blend of genuine crushed stone combined with resin and colored pigments to make a highly durable urn that will stand the test of time whether kept in the home, placed in a niche, or buried in the earth.
