Ceramic art urn 'One heart two lovers'

Two lives, held in one piece

Some losses are simply too particular to put into words. This ceramic art urn was made for exactly that. Hand-modelled, unmistakably a work of art, and shaped around the conviction that love deserves somewhere real to rest.

Forty years of craft in every piece

The artist behind this urn has worked with ceramic for more than forty years. That depth of experience shows in the making. Each urn is hand-modelled from high-quality clay, then fired. During firing, a layer of liquid bronze is applied directly to the surface, bonding permanently to the ceramic body. The result is a rich bronze tone that varies slightly from piece to piece, because no two firings are identical, and no two urns are the same. This is not a production line. It is a single artist working at the pace the craft demands.

A heart, two people, one object

The symbolism at the centre of this cremation urn is deliberate. The heart does not function here as decoration. It refers to something specific: two people, one bond, now held together in a single object. If you are looking for something that can sit in a living room, on a windowsill or in a sheltered garden spot without announcing itself as a traditional urn, this is that piece. Its contemporary form reads as art first. What it carries is known only to those who placed it there.

Customisation to your needs

Because no two situations are alike, the artist offers the option to adapt the urn to your wishes. From the initial modelling through to the completed firing, the process takes approximately four weeks. That lead time is not a delay, it is part of how the piece is made. If you would like to personalise this urn for ashes, you can indicate your wishes at the point of ordering, and the artist will work from there.

Practical considerations for indoor and outdoor placement

Fired ceramic with a bonded bronze layer is resistant to moisture and temperature change. This funeral urn is suitable for indoor display and for sheltered outdoor positions alike. The material is robust, but like any ceramic object it is best placed on a stable surface where there is no risk of it being knocked over. That is the only practical consideration worth bearing in mind. The construction is designed to last.
