Red ceramic funeral urn 'Forget Me Not'

A flower that remembers

The forget-me-not has carried the same meaning for centuries: I am thinking of you, even now you are gone. If you are looking for a cremation urn that holds that connection every day, this hand-made ceramic piece was made with exactly that in mind.

Made by hand, one at a time

This urn for ashes is the work of a ceramist whose practice has grown through years of creative exploration and personal expression. Every piece is shaped entirely by hand. The form and motif repeat, but no two urns are identical: small variations in shape, proportion and colour patina mean that each one carries its own character. That is not inconsistency. It is what handmade ceramic work looks like when a maker puts genuine attention into every piece.

The urn is formed in red ceramic with a square profile, and the forget-me-not sits at its centre as the defining motif. It is suitable for use with or without an ash bag, giving you practical flexibility in how you choose to use it.

Comfort given a form

There is a difference between an object produced at scale and one shaped by a single person who has chosen to put something of themselves into the work. The ceramist behind this collection has described the responses of those who receive her pieces as a source of real meaning to her, and you can feel that in how each urn is made. The bond you shared with the person you have lost deserves something that was made with the same kind of care.

Personalisation options

If you would like to personalise this funeral urn, an engraving plate can be added. It can carry a name, a date, or a short phrase that says something true about who this person was to you. Not a general sentiment, but the words that are right for you.

Practical things worth knowing

Ceramic is a stable and durable material, but it needs a settled, sheltered position indoors. Keep it away from areas with significant temperature fluctuation and out of reach of children or pets. Because each urn is hand-formed, small variations in shape or colour may occur between pieces. These are a natural result of the process, not defects. Please check the urn carefully on arrival and get in touch promptly if there is any sign of damage in transit.

Limited availability

Because every urn is made entirely by hand and no two are the same, availability is limited at any given time. The piece you see is the piece you are choosing: there is no identical copy waiting behind it.
