The Handmade Celestial Blue Raku Ceramic Cremation Urn is hand-thrown in the traditional Japanese Raku-fired ceramic art process. A very popular style for ceramic urns, this handmade art piece is individually handcrafted in honor of your loved one by a ceramic artist in the U.S.A.

With Raku ceramics, each piece of pottery is taken from the kiln red hot, the molten glaze silken and glowing. Then it is placed in a bed of straw or leaves in an air-tight container. The dry plant material immediately bursts into flame as the “reduction chamber” is sealed. The flame and the smoking oxygen-starved atmosphere transform the glaze surface, creating raku's unique, seemingly ancient colors and textures. Thus, each of our Raku-fired funeral urns are one of a kind and completely unique in the particulars of the design. The urn you receive will look different from the one pictured above.

Underwhelmed

I was extremely excited to get an urn that is truly one of a kind. However, when it arrived I felt that the quality and overall attention to its uniqueness lacked.

Perfect

This was the perfect selection for our beloved family member. It is a gorgeous piece of art. The Roku method would have fascinated him. The colors are a perfect representation of his personality. Thank you.

Handmade Celestial Blue Raku Ceramic Cremation Urn

Beautiful urn, delivered within the time estimate. Very happy with it. Only complaint was the $50 HST added to bring it into Canada, but that is a problem with our government, not UNW. Nevertheless, worth knowing for Canadians.

Beautiful! Perfect!

The urn was beautiful! My dear sister picked it out online and sent me a photo before she passed. It turned out even more beautiful than the picture. The customer service was 10 stars! Even though it showed as unavailable online I called and they managed to find us another one and had it shipped in time for our service. I can’t say Thank You enough for their assistance and the beautiful urn.
