These cremation urns and funeral memorials have a very special effect: when placed in a sunny location, these urns will reflect a fantastic starscape of lights throughout the room ... this becomes a daily and uplifting effect that occurs at the same time each day when the sunlight pours through the window and reflects off the mosaic surface of the urn.

Starlight Flat Top Urn from the Reflections Series

The Reflections Collection is made up of funeral urns for adults in two sizes (Large for a person up to 200 lbs, and Medium for up to 175 lbs), spherical child or infant urns in three sizes, and spheres in three different sizes for pet urns for cats and dogs.

The large and medium adult urns are hand crafted in art glass, with a silver plated ring at the rim, and a choice of sphere top or flat top, depending on height availability in the urn's intended location. Included with the urn is a plastic liner bag, instructions for transfer of ashes, and permanent sealant.

Rainbow Sphere Memorial Urn

The spheres, also hand made in art glass, sit upon a solid brass stand and have a solid brass Closure, which provides an area for engraving name, dates, and a few thoughtful words.  Included with each sphere is a plastic liner bag, instructions for ashes transfer, a velvet pouch and a small ziplock bag for containing mementos separately from the ashes.

Everyone at some time will face the death of a loved one.  

Over 50% of funerals are cremations,

so here are some critical points when buying an urn or keepsake.

1. The Weight to Volume Formula  

The Formula is: 1 lb. of healthy weight becomes 1 cubic inch of ashes.  

If your loved one weighed 180 lbs., buy an urn that’s at least 180 cubic inches. 

Most urns are 200 cubic inches. 

There are smaller sizes, as well as larger sizes.

2. Intended Location 

If you want to keep the urn at home, consider its dimensions. 

For a china cabinet or shelving unit, measure the shelf height. 

Or, if you prefer a columbarium niche, ask about height options.

3. Disposition of the Ashes 

Some families conduct a Scattering Ceremony. 

If scattering, you may choose to keep some ashes in a keepsake. 

Or, you can put mementos instead of ashes into a keepsake,

like a small photo, a lock of hair, a poem or letter.

4. Dividing the Ashes 

Another choice is dividing the ashes among family members. 

If so, use “The Formula” to add up the sizes of keepsakes to hold all the ashes:

1 lb. of healthy body weight = 1 cubic inch of ashes.  

A keepsake for each person’s home will inspire loving memories.

5. Your Loved One’s Personality 

To capture the spirit of your loved one, consider their style. 

What made them happy?  What was their favorite color? 

It may take some searching, but you’ll know the right urn when you see it.

There can be great comfort in having properly memorialized your loved one.
