The Life Cycle of Wood Cremation Urns
A selection of hardwoods and softwoods are procured from renewable forests for the construction of wood
urns. These include oak, mahogany, cherry, maple, pine and walnut to name a few. All of these woods bring
their own personality to the wood urns made, oak for instance delivering resilience and a classical feel to a
wood urn, while cherry captivates through its rippling 'dark and light' grain.
Wood is cut from the planks of trees and shaped to the individual design of each of the wood urns. The
wood urns are then hand assembled with the greatest of care, skilled carpenters and craftsmen insuring
that each wood urn maintains a uniqueness of character. Some wood urns are adorned with stained
finishes; these are used to accentuate the character and grain in each of the wood urns made.
Types of Wood Urns Available Online
Online, there are numerous wooden urns for the bereaved to choose from. Wood urns handmade from
cherry are very popular throughout North America, as are wooden urns featuring characteristic warm hue
finishes. Mahogany wood urns provide a natural warmth through their deep red-brown grain, while wood
urns incorporating inlaid walnut work are well-liked too.
Wooden urns without doubt bring a demure sense of occasion to a memorial service, interment or
scattering. As the grain of each wood urn is as individual in character as the life being mourned, then it
seems only fitting that a wood urn is selected to memorialize the passing of a life.
