Our urns are 3D printed using a carefully selected matte composite material chosen for its clean finish, lightweight feel, and modern appearance. Because each piece is made through an additive printing process, subtle layer lines or small surface variations may be visible up close.
Some finishes, such as Sand Wood and Ebony Wood, also incorporate natural wood fibres for a warmer, lightly textured surface.
A simple rule is 1 cubic inch of urn capacity for every 1 lb of body weight before cremation.
If you are close to the limit of one size, we recommend choosing the next size up. If you're unsure, feel free to contact us before ordering.

A lot of urns feel very formal.
They serve an important purpose, but they don’t always feel easy to place in a normal home.
Elmwood came from wanting something simpler.
A piece that feels calm, considered, and easy to keep close.
That’s the idea behind what we make.
Soft, modern forms created to feel calm, refined, and meaningful in the home.
Each piece is carefully produced with time, attention, and respect.

Our Sand Wood and Ebony Wood finishes include fine wood fibers, giving them a warmer, lightly textured surface. The other colors have a smooth matte finish.
A general rule is that 1 lb of body weight requires about 1 cubic inch of urn capacity.
For example, a person who weighed around 150 lb would usually need an urn with at least 150 cubic inches of capacity. If you are unsure, we recommend choosing the next size up.
You can also contact us before ordering and we’ll help you choose the right size.
Most funeral homes or crematoriums can help transfer the remains into the urn for you.
If you prefer to do it yourself, cremated remains are usually provided in a sealed plastic bag. In most cases, that bag can be placed directly inside the urn without being opened.
Each urn is designed with a secure fitted lid.
For a permanent seal, you may apply a small amount of adhesive to the lid before closing it for the final time. A funeral home can also help with this step if you prefer.
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust.
For light cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with water. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents, as they may affect the matte finish.
We recommend keeping the urn indoors and away from prolonged direct sunlight or high heat.
