Description
The Transitions Urn with Cardinal Stained Glass Panel by Howard Miller is a memorial urn that combines craftsmanship and meaning. The Transitions Urn with Cardinal Stained Glass Panel is constructed from strong poplar wood that is stained in a rich espresso finish. The front of the urn features a handmade stained glass panel featuring a bright red cardinal perched on a graceful branch with three green leaves. For many people, the cardinal represents hope and signals the presence of loved ones -- which gives this cardinal cremation urn added meaning.
The Transitions Urn with Cardinal Stained Glass Panel is made by Howard Miller, a Michigan-based company respected for its quality and workmanship in clocks and furniture since 1926.
The urn is accessed from the back with a wooden panel secured with four screws. The inner compartment of the Transitions Urn with Cardinal Stained Glass Panel is sized to hold the brass urn insert by Howard Miller (available for add-on purchase), the plastic urn container provided by many funeral homes, or an ash bag.
You will treasure the fact that the Transitions Urn with Cardinal Stained Glass Panel includes a way to illuminate the panel -- allowing you to turn it on when you are thinking of your loved one. The lighting feature is battery-operated (3 AA batteries not included). This urn can be featured at a memorial service and/or displayed at home on a mantel, side table, or shelf.
If using the brass urn insert, please note that the insert has a permanent snap-lock closure and cannot be re-opened once ashes are placed inside. The Transitions Urn can be opened and closed as desired. The capacity of the brass insert is 240 cubic inches, which would accommodate the ashes of a person who weighed 240 lbs. or less prior to cremation.
