Pearl Purple Bio Small Urn

Roughly the size of a paperback, this small biodegradable urn measures 6 by 5.5 inches and 2 inches deep, finished in a pearl purple paper board. Its material and side-opening construction are the same as the full-size water burial urns, scaled down. Families use it when several relatives are each scattering separately.

Capacity is 59 cubic inches, so it will not take a full adult set of ashes. Applying the one cubic inch per pound rule, 59 cubic inches suits a child, an infant, a pet of up to about 59 pounds, or a divided share of an adult's ashes. Fill it through the side while it lies flat, and keep it dry until the day itself.

• 59 cu in holds a divided portion, not a full adult's ashes
• Also fits a pet of up to roughly 59 lb if you are using it that way
• Order several if the ashes are being divided among family members
