Circulus Urns are about the eternal circle of life – infinity, peace and security. The surfaces of the urns are unique, as if furrowed with strands of life. Their textures create planetary effects – reminiscent of the surface of the moon and those of other planets – and carefully selected colours retain a pallet of earth tones. These are handmade urns, which give another sense to the passing of a person. All urns are unique, just like the people.
Two types of urn are available in the collection: durable and keepsake urns – household objects for the remembrance of loved ones.
Durable urns are designed for burial or for placing ash in a columbarium. They are fired twice – after sculpting and glazing the clay becomes resistant and can withstand the effects of the environment. These urns have a metal fastening.
The keepsake urn is for those who wish to keep part of the ashes.

Every urn is named after a constellation in latin. People have long believed that after death a person is reborn as a star in the sky. We seek to foster this very beautiful myth.

Our urns have no relationship to any religion. We aim to keep a minimalist aesthetic, so that the urns would be as neutral as possible and create a meditative aura of peace. Visual and tactile examination of their texture helps finding a peaceful moment to think about a loved person who has passed away.
