Thera Royal Aluminum Urn

Blue runs the full height of this aluminum urn, a saturated colour laid over metal rather than a printed panel stuck onto it. At 9.25 inches tall and 7 across it is smaller than the standard adult urn shape, which suits a shelf that already has things on it.

It opens at the top. No cubic-inch capacity is published for this piece, so if the exact figure is what decides the purchase, ask before ordering rather than working it out from the outside dimensions. Aluminum does not rust or take up moisture, so it copes with a conservatory, a bathroom shelf or a damp niche far better than wood or ceramic would.

• Top opening; the lid lifts and seats without hardware
• 7 inches across the base, a narrower footprint than most adult urns
• Ships in 1-2 business days, same day if the order is in by 1:00 PM CST
