Buying a mini urn, duo urn or pet urn
Besides the regular urns, we also sell urns that are suitable for storing part of the ashes, urns that are suitable for storing the ashes of several loved ones, and urns that are suitable for animals.
Keepsake urns or mini urns
Nowadays, more and more people are choosing to keep a small amount of ash in a so-called keepsake urn or mini urn. A mini urn is suitable when several relatives wish to create a memorial space for their loved one. Another reason for choosing a mini urn is when you want to scatter some of the ashes and keep some.
Duo urns
Do you want to keep the ashes of several loved ones together? In that case you can opt for a duo urn. Duo urns are urns that symbolically combine the ashes of two loved ones. This allows partners or family members to remain together even after their death.
Pet urns
A pet urn is a small urn in which the ashes of your pet can be kept. Pets occupy an important place in our lives, so they deserve a dignified place to remember them by. By keeping the ashes of your deceased pet in a pet urn, you create a tangible reminder and a place where you can go to remember your faithful companion.
