Arcadia Onyx Medium Stone Urn

Tall and slim, this urn stands 9.75 inches high on a 7.5 inch base, cut from stone with the dark banded look of onyx. It is the medium size in the Arcadia range, a step down from the full adult urn rather than a small keepsake.

The lid lifts clear from the top, so ashes are placed in from above and the base stays solid. A cubic-inch figure is not published for the medium size, so if the fit is going to be close, work from the standard rule of one cubic inch of capacity for every pound of body weight before death and ask us to confirm the number first. The height is a sensible one for a niche or a bookcase shelf.

• Capacity is not listed by the supplier for the medium size
• Top opening; the lid comes away for filling
• Full-size Arcadia stands 11 inches tall if you need more room
