The Trillium Wooden Urn with Handmade Tile is a beautiful memorial urn featuring the lovely woodland wildflower, the trillium. You can touch the tile and feel the petals and leaves. For someone who appreciated the beauty of nature, this cremation urn is a meaningful memorial.
A ceramic tile with an embossed trillium design is framed on the front of the urn. The trillium tile is designed, glazed, and fired by an American ceramic artist. She glazes the tile background in a forest green glaze while the flower in the foreground has the natural coloring of the clay. The trillium flower is one of most showy wildflowers in spring and is associated with purity and grace.
This cremation urn is built by woodworkers in the USA from solid walnut. A favorite choice for wood cremation urns, walnut wood has rich color and strong grain and is a renewable resource. The tile used as an accent on this urn is made of fired clay.
Size-wise, the Trillium Wooden Urn with Handmade Tile is considered an adult size cremation urn. The capacity is 202 cubic inches (can hold the ashes of a person who weighed 202 lbs. or less prior to cremation). The urn compartment is accessed from the bottom by removing the base, placing the ashes inside, and then re-securing the base with the four screws.
The Trillium Wooden Urn with Handmade Tile is appropriate for keeping at home, placement in a columbarium niche, or ground burial according to the family's wishes. An urn vault may be required by the cemetery for ground burial (each cemetery has its own regulations).
