Beautiful Memories
What is an urn? An urn is a vase which usually has a narrowed neck above a footed pedestal. It is ordinarily covered and has no handles. There are different types of urns depending on its use. It is very common to see a handmade urn made out of different types of materials. It could be made out of wood, metal or even pottery. A handmade urn is considered a work of art and is one of the best ways to decorate your home.
An urn could also be used for holding the remains or the ashes of the dead after cremation. It could also be a closed vessel usually with a spigot for serving a hot beverage like coffee. It is then called a coffee urn. Most urns nowadays are handcrafted and come in different shapes and no longer have to follow a vase like pattern. It is now getting very common to cremate the dead and keep their ashes in our homes in a handmade urn to keep the memories of our departed loved ones alive in our hearts.
