Urn size

Do you want to use the urn as a keepsake object for storing all or part of the ashes?
There is often also a desire to keep the ashes within the family in various urn creations or to retain some of the ashes for a certain period of time.

Our urn objects contain information about the volume in the description. Thanks to our many years of experience, we were able to make the urn size as compact as possible.

Which urn size should I choose?
The Atelier Urne.ch creates urns in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and designs. For an adult, you can stick to the "standard" size . These urns have a volume of 3.5 - 4.5 l. The use of smaller urns can meet various needs, whether it is dividing the ashes or storing some of the ashes after scattering. The small urns are also used for children. Here you will find children's and memorial urns.

For small and medium-sized objects, we recommend that you refer to the table below. This shows how much ash is produced during cremation. Based on these values, you can estimate the volume required and select the appropriate urn size accordingly.
