Beautiful urn, holds adult remains securely
I purchased this urn for my son's girlfriend,  whose father passed away far too young. It was a very painful time, made more difficult with tight finances. This urn was perfect. . . So attractive and peaceful. Family really loved the  turquoise color and doves on the front - very  ethereal and calming.  And the price. . . Wow. The cremation office sold urns in the $200-300  range.  How perfect it was to get this one and a small urn necklace for under $100.<br /><br />On the issue of size: I read some reviews which caution about the size of the urn needed to accommodate adult ashes.  That has to do with the weight of the deceased, so larger loved ones  will need bigger urn, small urn for smaller person. Some urns give specs on pre-cremation weight... eg &#34;will accommodate ashed of 180 pound person.&#34; That's helpful if you know the weight.  But how does one ask this delicate question of a grieving child whose parent had dramatic weight loss during final weeks of life?  We did not know the weight of the deceased, but he was an adult male over 6 feet tall, was stocky prior to illness. This urn was suitable in size and held the entirety of his ashes,  no problem.<br /><br />When looking at the pictures online, I was not certain whether the metal accents were gold, silver, bronze. In case you're wondering,  it is a lovely silver trim.
