My Mother’s Urn

By fuzzy4ou, member Sep 07, 2009

This urn was built by my brother Roy, my son Tom and myself for my mother’s ashes. It is made from curly koa with a maple inlay and finished in a satin finish. This project was completed in 2 days. The urn is about 14” on a side and about 7” tall with a volume of 220 cubic inches.

Excellent work, and a distinctive design.

A beautiful piece of art, I presume the symbols are "infinity" or "Circle of Life"? Can you share or correct my interpretation? Regardless, the art is most appropriate and tasteful. My sincere condolences for your loss. Best regards,

Jerry

The three circles and the fact that it has 3 sides is to represent the Trinity.

Excellent work. Have you got a plan that you could pass on? I would love to try making this one myself.
