Pet urn with candle holder 'Dog bone'

A farewell shaped by what he loved most

A dog bone. Instantly recognisable, unmistakably his. This ceramic pet urn for ashes holds the character of your dog in its form, not as an abstract symbol but as something you know straight away. That recognition is exactly what makes this piece so quietly powerful.

Hand-modelled by an artist with four decades of experience

The artist behind this urn has been creating ceramic works for more than 40 years. Every piece is hand-modelled from high-quality clay. Once shaped, the urn goes through a firing process during which liquid bronze is bonded directly to the ceramic surface, becoming part of the material itself. The result is a depth of colour and finish that cannot be replicated by machine. Because every urn is made entirely by hand, each one has its own character. You are not receiving a mass-produced item. From the first modelling to the finished fired piece, the process takes around four weeks, and that care is visible in every detail.

A ceramic object that holds its own in any room

The considered design means the urn does not read as a memorial at first glance. Visitors see a striking ceramic object. You see your dog. That double quality, the artistic and the deeply personal side by side, is what makes this pet cremation urn a meaningful presence in the home.

Practical care and indoor use

Ceramic is a solid, stable material, and this urn is designed for indoor use. Place it on a firm, dry surface away from moisture and direct heat. The bronze finish is fused to the ceramic during firing, so it is part of the piece rather than a surface coating. Clean with a dry or lightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cloths or cleaning products, which can dull the finish over time.

Candle holder included

The urn comes with a candle holder, so you can place a tea light beside it whenever you choose. It may become a quiet ritual, a moment in the day that belongs to the bond you shared with him.

Made to your wishes

If you would like the urn adapted to reflect your dog more closely, the artist works to commission. Customisation is available, and the artist will talk through exactly what is possible before any decisions are made, so you know precisely what to expect. If you have something specific in mind, get in touch and we will go through the options together at your own pace.
