Beautiful Natural and Oxidized Curly Maple Cremation Urn

This contemporary and minimalist cremation urn is made of beautiful natural and oxidized curly maple with gold leaf detail.
 
The unique color of the urn is achieved through an oxidation technique. The wood reacts naturally with iron acetate (vinegar and iron), resulting in this distinctive coloring. Sometimes more purple or blue, golden or silvery, yellow or greenish, it is difficult to precisely describe the color effects of oxidation, and each piece treated with this technique reveals its unique tones. The combination of this coloring with the visual qualities of figured maple reminds me of water ripples under the sun. In the center, a fine line adored with gold leaf makes a soft transition and adds a touch of light. For the gold accents, I use imitation gold leaf made of brass (a mix of copper and zinc), reflecting my commitment to ethical sourcing of materials I choose.
 
Finished with a high-quality eco-friendly oil, applied by hand, it obtains a soft shine and protection to ensure its durability. The interior of the urn also has an additional thin layer of beeswax, polished into a smooth surface to preserve the ashes of your loved one. 
 
Exterior dimensions: 7 1/2" W x 6 1/2" D x 8" H
Capacity for the ashes: 215 cubic inches
