The Leaves of Gold Keepsake Urn is a mini cremation urn for ashes which features hand-engraved leaves. This cremation urn is cast out of brass and the patterning is finished in antique gold to highlight the incredible engraving details. The threaded lid is styled in the same fashion as the body of the urn - decorated with leaves and trimmed with simple, polished gold. Keepsake urns can be used for a variety of different reasons. Many people use keepsake urns to share a loved one's ashes with other family members, or they are used to keep a small portion of the ashes once the majority of the ashes have been scattered, buried, or placed in a columbarium. Some people choose to scatter or keep a small amount in a different place than where the primary urn is displayed. This is a small size cremation urn with a capacity of 2 cubic inches (approximately 2 tablespoons of ashes).
