Minimalist Walnut Cremation Urn with Gold Leaf Details

Minimalist Walnut Cremation Urn with Gold Leaf Details

I present to you this minimalist cremation urn, made entirely of black walnut with gold leaf details, offering a beautiful and unique way to say a final farewell. 

 

This urn, with its unique and elegant character, is distinguished by the little knots on the front face adorned with a touch of gold leaf. This intervention emerges from my personal interpretation of the Japanese kintsugi technique. Inspired by this ancient art of repairing broken pottery with gold, I likewise highlight the imperfections in the wood with gold leaf details, adding a touch of light and symbolism, revealing and celebrating their beauty. The delicate golden dots represent the inner beauty that can emerge from imperfections and the marks left by the passage of life. I use imitation gold leaf, which is actually brass (copper and zinc), with a commitment to the ethical sourcing of materials used in my work.

 

The finish is a high-quality, environmentally friendly oil, applied and polished by hand in several layers. It provides a protective and durable finish and a soft satin sheen that enhances the natural beauty of the wood. The interior has an additional layer of beeswax, creating a smooth and soft surface to hold your loved one's ashes.

 

Exterior Dimensions: 7” wide x 7” deep x 8 1/8” high 

Capacity for Ashes: 220 cubic inches

 

Please note that the reliquaries presented on the right are not included with the urn. However, if you wish to complement it with different items such as flower holders, bookmarks, frames, or keepsakes, it is possible to customize orders. Please contact me for any inquiries.
