The Celtic Circle Cremation
Urn conveys powerful respect with its artistic construction and Celtic symbolism. This cremation urn is handcrafted in the USA from cedar wood. On
the front of the urn is an artist-made ceramic tile with an embossed celtic design called the Triskele or triple spiral. The Triskele symbol dates back to early Celtic times -- and is a symbol also found in other ancient cultures such as the Hopi and the Greeks. The three elements of the spiral are often interpreted as past, present, and future in one or as life, death, and rebirth.
The ceramic tile with the celtic circle design is made by a pottery artist -- the tile
is glazed in an amber brown glaze and fired in a kiln. You can touch the
tile and feel the spirals. To honor a loved one, this artistic cremation urn can be meaningful.
Cedar wood is a popular and
traditional choice for wood cremation urns as it is aromatic, has warm
reddish color tones, and is a renewable resource. The tile used as an
accent on this urn is made of fired clay. Overall this cremation urn is earth-friendly.
