Spring Leaves Urn Small Size
Spring Leaves Urn Small Size
The Spring Leaves Urn is a beautiful peaceful, calming light green.
This urn is intended as a small urn for keeping a smaller portion of cremains, or for a pet weighing up to 40 lbs. It is also perfect as a memory jar to hold love notes, jewelry, or some special remembrance of your loved one.
It measures. 4.5” x 4.5” x 4.5” and will hold up to 40 cubic inches **.
**If you are buying an urn for a pet, I suggest you go one size up. Please read my blog post about how to size an urn on my Studio Musings Page.
Each leaf that you see on this urn is hand carved. The beautiful green/blue transparent glaze fills in the incised lines to create a darker line. I originally called this urn “Playing in the Leaves” and intended this size for pets, but many of my customers use this size for their family member. This glaze reminds me of a walk in the woods, in springtime, when the leaves are new, fresh, bright green.
I make each urn at the potters wheel. The leaf pattern that you see is hand carved while the clay is soft. It is then fired in the kiln for 9 hours to harden. I then glaze it with different layers of glaze to achieve the variations you see. The final step is to fire it again in the kiln for 15 hours which allows the glaze to achieve it’s melting point.
Urns are made in four sizes, full size, medium size, small size and petite keepsake. Please check the shop for other sizes available.
All of my pottery is handmade, one piece at a time. All sizes are approximate, meaning they may vary slightly in size... maybe 1/4-1/2".
** One cubic inch = One pound of live weight.
You may seal the lid with a hardware grade epoxy.
