Keepsake urn for ashes 'Heart' natural ash

Something small that holds something real

Not every urn needs to be large to carry meaning. This keepsake urn for ashes is shaped like a heart and made from untreated maple, for those who want to keep a portion of the ashes at home, close and without ceremony. The heart is not a decorative flourish. It is a choice that says what words sometimes cannot.

Untreated maple with its own character

Maple is known for its fine grain and the flame-like figuring that forms through the natural growth of the tree. Because this wood is entirely untreated, there is no lacquer, no coating, nothing between you and the material itself. When you hold it, the wood takes on the temperature of your hand in a way that ceramic or metal simply does not. That quality of contact is quiet, but it is real.

Each piece differs slightly from the next. The colour gradations, the direction of the grain, the figuring in the wood: no two are identical. You are not choosing a standard production piece. You are choosing this one, with its particular markings and character.

Where it sits and what it means

If you are looking for a way to stay close without placing something large in your home, a keepsake urn gives you that space. The heart shape carries its own meaning. It needs no explanation on a windowsill, a bookshelf or a bedside table. It is simply present, in the way you want it to be.

The bond you shared deserves something that fits it. Untreated wood needs no gloss or grandeur to belong.

For indoor use only

Because the maple is untreated, this urn is not weather-resistant and is designed exclusively for use indoors. Moisture and direct sunlight can cause the wood to move or discolour over time. Place it somewhere dry, away from radiators and windows that receive strong direct sun. With those simple conditions met, the wood will hold its character and integrity for years to come.

A personal setting

This urn is supplied as shown, allowing the natural wood to speak for itself. Its simple appearance gives you space to create a remembrance setting that feels personal to you. A photograph, a handwritten note, a flower or a small object with meaning can help make the place around the urn feel closely connected to the person you are remembering.

The beauty of untreated wood lies in its honesty. It does not need much around it to feel meaningful, only the right place, the right memory and the details that matter to you.
