Planet and Space Pet Urns

Why people choose planet & space

This is the most playful theme we make, and it is chosen almost entirely by younger owners who find the standard visual language of grief unbearable rather than comforting.

It works because the spherical form of our urns is already a planet waiting to happen. The design did not really have to be invented so much as noticed.

How this design is made

Gas bands are marbled by dragging a tool through two wet glazes before they set, so the pattern is genuinely fluid rather than drawn on. It cannot be undone once started.

Rings, where asked for, are a separate flat ceramic disc fired independently and fitted around the body afterwards, since a ring attached before firing would sag.

Deep purples and blues over a dark body need two glaze firings to reach full depth, which adds a few days.
