Read our simple sizing 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 approximately 1 litre of ashes.
This means if you have 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.
If you are unsure about sizing an urn please call us on 01245 377057 and we will be able to assist you.

How to inter our brass urns and keepsakes

Unscrew the threaded lid, or closure in the base, if applicable.
Inter the ashes slowly into the urn, using a funnel if required.
Screw the lid or closure back onto the urn, being careful not to cross thread the lid.
If you wish to engrave the urn after purchasing from us, we recommend taking the urn to a jewellery or trophy engraver. Only engrave the brass areas, and not the enamel, as this will cause damage.

How to look after our brass urns and keepsakes

Regularly dust or polish with a soft microfibre cloth
A small amount of brass polish can be used, if tested on an inconspicuous area first
Keep the urn out of direct sunlight and do not expose to harsh elements, to avoid discolouration or tarnishing
