Turtles Raku Ceramic Keepsake

Turtles circle the body of this ceramic keepsake, raised in relief under a crackled Raku glaze. The finish comes from cooling the piece in open air straight from the kiln, which is why the color breaks unevenly and why yours will not match the photograph exactly. Five inches tall, five across.

At 60 cubic inches it holds around a third of an adult's ashes, so it works well when a family is dividing a set between siblings. Used alone, the capacity fits a child or a pet weighing up to about sixty pounds. Check the width against your shelf or niche before ordering, since five inches is wider than it looks.

• 60 cu in; measures 5 x 5 in
• Glaze pattern is unique to each piece and cannot be matched across a set
• Dust with a dry cloth; do not soak or scrub the crackled glaze
