If your loved one did not want a traditional funeral with a casket burial, you may not know the best way to store or handle their ashes after cremation. As cremation becomes increasingly popular, people want more dignified options for holding, storing, scattering or sharing ashes. Cremation urns are an obvious solution, but you may not realize how much variety exists from which to choose.
The cremation urn collection at OneWorld Memorials™ includes a selection of vessels for keeping, burying and scattering your loved one's remains. Shop our collection for traditional and modern urns made of a wide array of materials, including engravable urns and biodegradable options that honor the joy and wonder your loved one brought into your life. With so many styles, you can choose an urn that rekindles a memory, whether a floral motif that illustrates a love of gardening or a stately bronze hue that speaks to the simplicity of a life well led. More modern options include picture frame urns that conceal cremation ashes behind a treasured memory and inscription.
Traditional Cremation Urns to Keep or Bury
While traditionally urns were kept by loved ones or placed in a vault, newer cremation urns allow you to honor your dear family member, a close friend or beloved pets in what feels natural to you, such as burying or scattering ashes. Whether you plan to keep your loved one's ashes at home, bury them at a gravesite or place them in a columbarium, a cremation urn is the most traditional vessel for cremated remains. Browse our collection for a full range of urns made from quality materials, including wood, marble, metal, stained glass and mother of pearl.
Looking for a more modern approach to cremation urns? Biodegradable materials such as paper, sand and bamboo are lovely choices, even if you don't plan to bury the ashes for some time. These eco-friendly urns are perfect for a water ceremony or burial in a loved one's favorite natural setting. Find even more unique cremation urn styles at OneWorld Memorials™ that provide space for a photograph or a custom engraved message to comfort you and your family. All our cremation urns and memory boxes feature secure lids to preserve your loved one's remains for years to come.
Options for Scattering Ashes
Releasing cremated ashes into the beauty of nature can be a final gesture of freedom for both the departed and those grieving their loss. Browse our collection for scattering urns that add an elegant touch to any ceremony or gathering for this rite of solemn celebration. Our scattering cremation urns feature easy-to-open lids for successful, stress-free spreading of ashes. You can also find scattering urn or tube sets that allow multiple family members or friends to participate in a meaningful memorial service.
After you have spread the cremains in a place your loved one would have appreciated, you can reuse these scattering cremation urns in creative ways, such as a loving display remembrance, a memorial vase, a memory box or even a donation to those who cannot afford a personalized memorial of their own. It is another beautiful approach that lets your loved one's memory live on through an altruistic act.
