Hand-Turned Capped Hardwood Urn (50% Deposit)

from $375.00

This made-to-order urn is turned from a single block of solid hardwood in the Mont Arbor studio in Virginia, USA. Choose the wood and the size when you order.

Each vessel is shaped on the lathe and finished by hand. No two blocks are alike: grain, figure and color change from one to the next, so your urn will differ in small ways from the one photographed. We photograph each finished urn and send you the images before it ships. With reasonable care a solid hardwood piece like this lasts for generations.

Woods:

  • Walnut — dense and fine-grained; deep chocolate to purple-brown

  • Maple — hard maple; pale cream with a fine, even grain and occasional figure

  • Ash — cream to light tan with a bold, open grain that stays visible under the finish

  • Cherry — warm red-brown with a satin grain; darkens noticeably in its first year in daylight

  • White oak — tan to light brown, dense and heavy, with a distinct ray fleck

Sizes:

  • Pet - 100 cubic inches of capacity

  • Petite - 150 cubic inches of capacity

  • Full - 250 cubic inches of capacity

As a general rule, choose a capacity equal to or greater than original weight in pounds. If you need a larger urn urn, we can accommodate you, just let us know prior to checkout.

A bronze threaded lid closes the urn securely and is designed to keep working through seasonal changes in heat and humidity. Each urn is completely sealable. Urns ship empty; the lid can be opened and resealed when remains are transferred.

Current completion time: [6–8] weeks.

A deposit of 50% of the total price begins your order and covers materials and about half the labor. Place a deposit or schedule an introductory call to start. The balance is due when your completed piece is ready and before it ships.
