Fiberglass funeral urn 'Éole' black and gold

A presence that stays with you

Some urns sit quietly in a room and fade into the background. The 'Éole' in black and gold does the opposite. It holds its place, carries real weight as an object, and says something true about the person you are remembering.

How a glassfibre urn is made

The production process behind a glassfibre cremation urn is more involved than most people expect. It begins with a cast framework of glassfibre, resin and plaster. Two or three thick glaze coats are then applied in layers, each mixed with plaster for body and stability. Between every coat, the urn is rinsed with water so that the next layer bonds properly to the surface. Colour is added at a precise stage in the sequence, sealed beneath a coat of varnish, then a second varnish coat follows. The urn is then levelled and polished to finish. That layered process is what gives the 'Éole' its depth of colour, its light weight and its durability as a material.

Black and gold, and what they say

Black is not an absence. It is the colour of composure and of someone who knew their own mind. The gold that sits against it speaks to what remains: the bond you shared, the particular quality of a voice, a gesture, a moment that still surfaces. That combination is considered, not decorative for its own sake. It reflects something about the person you are honouring.

Designed for indoor use

The 'Éole' is made for use inside the home, placed wherever feels right to you. A windowsill, a shelf, a corner that belonged to them. The urn is suitable for use both with and without an ash bag.

What you can rely on

Glassfibre is a stable and durable material in normal indoor conditions. It holds its colour and structure well over time, and the polished outer surface can be cleaned with a dry or lightly dampened cloth to keep its finish looking as intended. As with any urn, it is worth placing it somewhere it will not easily be knocked, and avoiding prolonged exposure to condensation or moisture near a window.

Practical considerations for this urn for ashes

Because glassfibre is lightweight relative to its size, it is easy to handle and to reposition. The material does not chip or crack under normal handling, and the colour is protected beneath a sealed varnish layer rather than sitting on the surface. Avoid abrasive cloths or cleaning products, which can dull the finish over time.

Adding something personal

If you would like this urn to carry your own words, personalisation is available. An engraving plate can be added, with space for a name, a date or a short phrase that feels right. If you are unsure what to include or how to word it, we are happy to think it through with you at your own pace.
