With its nautical style, the Compass Rose Cedar
Urn can pay tribute to a boater or sailor. Handcrafted in
the USA, this cremation urn is made from cedar wood. An artist-made tile -- with an embossed compass rose
design -- is centered on the front of the urn.
The compass rose is a time-honored symbol used on
nautical maps and charts and, for some people, a symbol for finding
your life's direction. The Compass Rose Cedar Urn is a beautiful wooden urn with seaside spirit.
The compass rose tile is made by a ceramic artist -- the design is carved, a deep blue glaze is applied, and then the tile is fired in a kiln. You can touch the
tile and feel the directional points and markings of the compass.
Cedar is a popular choice for wood cremation urns with its warm
reddish color tones and renewability. The tile is made of fired clay.
The Compass Rose Cedar Urn is categorized as an extra
large adult size cremation urn. The capacity is 275 cubic inches.
In terms of the final resting place, the
Compass Rose Cedar Urn
can be kept at home on a bookshelf, table or mantel. Alternatively it can be placed in a
columbarium niche or buried in the ground according to the family's wishes. An urn vault
may be required by the cemetery for ground burial (each cemetery has its
own regulations).
