Ceramic art urn 'Soulmate'

An artwork that holds what doesn't fade

You're not looking for something generic. You're looking for something that does justice to who they were, something you can see every day and find comfort in rather than pain. The Soulmate ceramic art urn is exactly that: a piece that lives in your space as a work of art and carries deep personal meaning at the same time.

Hand-modelled by an artist with more than 40 years of experience

The artist behind the Soulmate has worked in ceramics for over four decades. Every urn is modelled by hand from high-quality clay, and during the firing process a layer of liquid bronze is bonded directly to the surface. This is not a coating applied afterwards; it fuses with the ceramic and gives each piece its distinctive, rich colour. Because every urn is shaped by hand, small variations in form and surface occur naturally. No two Soulmate urns are identical. From the first modelling to the final firing, the production process takes around four weeks. That time reflects the nature of the craft itself.

Recognised as art, understood as remembrance

The Soulmate's contemporary forms and bronze colouring are a deliberate choice. Visitors to your home will see a piece of art. You will know what it holds and what it means. That quiet understanding, the shared story that only you carry, is what keeps them present in your daily life.

Personalisation options

If you would like to make the Soulmate more specific to the person you're remembering, personalisation is available in discussion with the artist. This might mean an adjusted colour finish, a particular detail in the form, or something else that speaks to their life or character. The artist welcomes these conversations, and the urn can be shaped around what you want it to say.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor use

The Soulmate can be placed indoors or outside, whether in a garden, on a terrace, or within your home. Ceramic is a durable and stable material, but it does need a little care when placed outside for extended periods. Frost places ceramic under pressure, so during periods of hard frost it's worth bringing the urn inside or protecting it from freezing temperatures.

Craftsmanship and practical details

A few things worth knowing before you decide. The bronze finish is bonded to the ceramic during firing, not painted on afterwards, which means it is part of the material rather than a surface layer. Production takes approximately four weeks because of the entirely handmade nature of the process. Each urn is a single piece of work shaped by one artist, and that shows in the result.
