Porcelain straight canister cremation urn with customization options. Custom made just for you to hold pet ashes or use instead to hold special pet memorial mementos like a pet collar. Glazed only at top above the top line of text. Hand impressed lettering spelling the name of your pet, date on back side at no extra charge if you'd like. Cork will be custom fitted to opening, but please secure urn cork stopper with glue (such as gorilla glue, or super glue).
Please specify in notes to seller box of the order transaction when you purchase: the pet NAME as you'd like it written, DATE in the format that you'd like, CLAY color (this listing is for porcelain only) and GLAZE color selection. Name can be in all lowercase letters, all uppercase or can be capitalized, please specify your preference and write it exactly as you'd like me to impress it. Please select a different urn style (quote or half quote urn style) if you would like a custom quote or additional text besides a name and date. This urn style is for limited amount of text on the front and back of the urn. Customizations beyond these are possible, please message me if you have a special idea you'd like to discuss.
Urns in this listing are made of white porcelain with glaze color that you specify, see the 3rd and 4th photos for glaze color choices, custom requests from non current glazes also available based on other current items you see in the vitrifiedstudio etsy shop. Only the upper portion that is glazed will be the glaze color that you select, the lower portion will remain the unglazed clay. All sizes and proportions are approximate and will vary slightly as they are all handmade.The text on the piece is hand impressed with individual letter stamps (not engraved by computer), so the stamping and spacing and justification/ centering of the text will all have a hand impressed, and imperfect quality to it, as seen in the photos of all of urn samples.
I have added an option for colored text, please select this option if you would also like the glaze to be infilled into the text. This works best when the glaze and clay are contrasting colors. There is no charge for this option and you can select your choice of colors for the text glaze. On the lighter colored clays, a darker glaze in the text might leave some residue around the text from the text glaze application process.
french grey and ice blue glaze glaze are shown in the first photo on white porcelain clay. The second photo shows the colored text option example of the brown stoneware clay with white glaze.
The stoneware clay urns can be found in separate listings, as the porcelain urns cost more for me to make due to the delicate nature of the clay during the drying process.
Approximate straight urn size
3" x 3" - size extra small should fit a small pet that weighed up to 10 pounds
3.5" x 3.5" - size small should fit a small pet that weighed up to 25 pounds (shown in photo)
5" H x 4" D - size medium should fit a pet that weighed up to 50 pounds (shown in photo)
8" H x 4.5" D - size large should fit a pet that weighed up to 90 pounds
If you are close to the maximum volume of the urn I would recommend ordering a larger size urn if you want to ensure that the ashes fit. Ash volume can vary and might not calculate to the approximate 1 cubic inch of volume equals 1 pound of pre-cremation weight. For Hydro Cremation, there will be 20% more volume of ashes and please multiply 1.2 to the pre-cremation weight to select the urn size. I would always suggest ordering one size up if have any concerns about the urn size.
These are made to order and take about 2-3 weeks for me to make.

These are handmade and do not have industrial perfection. small imperfections are all a part of these handmade pieces. These glazes are food safe and lead free. as with all handmade ceramics, I do not recommend putting them in the microwave, oven or dishwasher. They are handmade of very limited quantity, so please use them with care. avoid contact with staining foods on unglazed exterior surfaces.
