Next we match the color schemes and then sand before lacquering. Sanding is a vital step in the preparation process that allows the varnish to later set properly.

Lacquering is the longest step in the process, as it’s important to ensure that each layer of varnish dries completely. After several layers and several days of drying, the urn is ready for thefinal step.

After the final polish, some urns are immediately ready for purchase, while some like The Thompson urn have additional details added such as a Florentine velvet lining or removable tray.

Our urns offer families a unique, modern way to honor their loved ones. Handmade by our artisans in Italy, each memorial is truly individual, just like the lives they celebrate.
