Burgundy Comfort Heart Paper Urns

You get the same pressed-paper heart here as in the blue and ivory versions, finished instead in a deep burgundy that reads as the darkest of the three. It measures ten inches across, six deep and four tall, and every part of it is biodegradable. The lid lifts off the top rather than screwing in.

At 240 cubic inches it holds a full adult set of ashes, suiting someone who weighed up to about 240 pounds. Most families use it for a water release or a natural burial, and the wide base means it can sit safely on a table during a service without being propped. Fill it shortly before the ceremony and keep it out of damp storage.

• Top opening with a lift-off lid
• Fits an adult up to roughly 240 lb
• Paper construction with no varnish and no metal parts
