Before you choose

A little certainty.

What it is, what you send, and what happens next.

A pet urn for your dog's or cat's ashes in the shape of their head, sculpted by hand from your photos. It is made for your pet alone, in cast stone with a white finish.

  • Material: cast stone, hand-sculpted from your photos and hand-finished.
  • Finish: white.
  • Hand-finished, so every piece has small differences in its surface.
  • Made to order in the Lake District.
  • Making time: 10 working days from your approval of the design, as every piece is personalized.
  • Sizes: Small for pets up to 33 lb (15 kg), Medium up to 66 lb (30 kg), Large up to 88 lb (40 kg). Tell us your pet's weight and we make the urn to hold all their ashes, with a little room to spare.
  • Indoors or outdoors: the stone takes rain and frost.
Will it look like my pet?

It is sculpted by hand from your photos to look like your pet, and you see the design before we make it.

What do I send, and what happens next?

A few photos of your pet; then we send you the design to see before anything is made.

  • Order, then send your photos: add them on this page when you order, or reply to your order email with them.
  • We sculpt the design and send it to you.
  • You say yes, or ask for a change.
  • We make it.
  • We send you a photo of the finished piece before it is packed.

Clear photos from more than one angle help most. Tell us what made them who they were: the ears, the expression, the look you knew.

What if I want a change?

Tell us when you see the design, and we change it.

One round of changes is included, two at most. On a paid order, if we hear nothing for about 48 hours after we send the design, we take that as your yes.

How long does it take?

10 working days of making from your yes, then shipping.

Before we pack it, we send you a photo of the finished piece. Shipping is free and comes after the making time.

How does it open, and what does it hold?

The opening is underneath, closed with a black plug. The ashes go inside in their sealed bag, and the plug closes it.

Small holds a pet up to 33 lb (15 kg), Medium up to 66 lb (30 kg) and Large up to 88 lb (40 kg). We size the space inside to your pet's weight, with a little room to spare, so all their ashes fit. For a pet at the top of each size, that space is about 39 cubic inches (645 ml) for Small, 76 cubic inches (1,240 ml) for Medium and 100 cubic inches (1,640 ml) for Large.

Can it go outdoors?

Yes: the stone takes rain and frost.

The urn does not seal out rain, so the ashes stay in their sealed bag inside it.

Returns: see our returns page.

Will their ashes fit?

Yes. You choose the size by their weight, and we make the urn to hold all their ashes, with a little room to spare.

  • Small, for pets up to 33 lb: holds 39 cubic inches (645 ml)
  • Medium, for 33 to 66 lb: holds 76 cubic inches (1,240 ml)
  • Large, for 66 to 88 lb: holds 100 cubic inches (1,640 ml)

The rule we size by: one cubic inch of space for each pound they weighed, plus a tenth, plus 3 cubic inches. Over 88 lb, ask us first. Urn size guide

What if it arrives damaged?

Email us a photo of the piece and the box, and we will put it right. Every piece travels in a double-walled box lined with foam. Returns and breakages
