- To use the Flamma Urn take the incense burner and lid off the top of the urn.
- Open up the cotton bag inside the urn and pull the top of the bag out over the opening of the urn.
- Using a funnel – dispense the ashes inside the bag slowly to allow them to settle then tie the cotton bag tight.
- Push the the tied top fully inside the urn and replace the lid.
- Light the candle in remembrance of your loved one.
A tea light can also be used as a replacement to the incense burner.
To help you with size and choose the correct product we have a simple step by step guide.
- Start by taking some digital scales and the container of ashes that you would have received from the crematorium.
- Place this box onto the digital scales and weigh the ashes.
- If the ashes are contained in a poly-tub, remove 230g from the additional weight. If they are in a cremation box, remove 200g from the weight.
- Our rule of thumb is that every kilogram of cremated remains equates to 1 litre of ashes.
- This means if you have approximately 3 kilograms of cremated remains you will need to purchase an urn of between 3-4 litres in capacity.
- We have products to suit all needs, available from 0.025 litre through to 8 litre capacities.
