WHICH URN SIZE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
For an adult, you can generally follow the size specification “Standard, regular size: 3.5–4.5 l.” These volume specifications apply exclusively to the designs and concepts of Urne.ch. As a rule, this is the correct size for an adult, regardless of the deceased person’s height, age or weight. You can find an exact table for children and adolescents here.
WHERE ARE THE URNS CREATED BY THE ARTIST COSMICBALL THOMAS SCHÄR MANUFACTURED?
SWISS MADE
Our hand-crafted urn collection is manufactured exclusively in Switzerland. With the exception of some stainless-steel objects and specific “small parts,” we use natural, ecological and resource-efficient materials. Swiss raw materials such as earthenware, ceramic clay products and sustainably regrown wood from Swiss forests are also processed.
RAW MATERIALS FROM SWITZERLAND
We process locally available Swiss raw materials such as earthenware, ceramic clay products and sustainably regrown wood from Swiss forests.
WHAT IMPORTANCE IS ATTACHED TO SWITZERLAND AS A LOCATION?
RESOURCE-EFFICIENT, ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PRODUCTION
Since all urns are manufactured 100% in Switzerland, transport distances are extremely short, limited to Switzerland and therefore highly resource-efficient. We ship our parcels climate-neutrally with Swiss Post under the “pro clima” label and have been committed for many years to obtaining eco-friendly and solar energy from the ewz Zurich energy utility.
SOCIAL COMMITMENT
In addition to working in the artist’s studio and in small craft businesses, Urne.ch also works with facilities providing employment for people with disabilities. URNE.CH has been a certified member of Swiss Label since 2003 and is therefore entitled to display the famous SWISS MADE label and promote it worldwide.
This diverse and wide-ranging commitment has also been recognized in numerous exhibitions in Switzerland and abroad.
RELIQUARY AND MEMORIAL URNS
Whether you wish to retain a small portion of the ashes as a keepsake or are faced with the difficult task of choosing an urn for a child, our special children’s and memorial urns offer a way to remember a special person in a dignified and unique manner. If you wish to keep only a trace of the ashes, our sign of memory® and our urn jewelry provide a beautiful and dignified way to preserve them.
If you wish to scatter the ashes at a special place later, the urn can remain as a memorial object.
