“The observation of nature is part of an artist’s life, it enlarges his form and knowledge, keeps him fresh and from working only by formula, and feeds inspiration.” Henry Moore
Sculpture cremation urns are becoming increasingly popular as a unique, and artistic way to remember a loved one. Each urn is a one-of-a-kind, hand carved, fine artwork. The design behind this work is based on natural organic forms removed from their context, and transformed by drawings and three-dimensional imaging into shapes with new meaning. Stone or hardwoods (often accented by bronze plate material) are used to carve long flowing curves with strong edges and negative space that characterizes this work. The finished sculpture acts as a handle to open its stone pedestal for placement of the cremation ashes, and adds a tactile dimension to appreciation of the artwork.
A number of choices are available when considering sculpture cremation urns. First, a current series 14 urns are available for immediate purchase, or with a lead-time of 6 to 8 weeks for fabrication of a specific urn. The re-creation of an urn design will be true to its original form, but the nature of hand carving will make each piece unique. Next, consideration will be given to design ideas for creation of a new sculpture cremation urn. Once a new design has been accepted, the lead-time for delivery of the artwork is also 6 to 8 weeks. Lastly, a specific sculpture cremation urn can be re-created using a variety of different stone or hardwood materials.
Additionally, an existent body of large and small sculptural artworks may be considered as subjects for sculpture cremation urns. When a work of art in the inventory best meets the needs for a cremation urn, the idea behind the artwork can be incorporated into a new sculpture cremation urn.
Sculpture cremation urns are only available online. No gallery or other outlet is involved in the sale of these urns, and the artwork prices reflect this lower overhead.
