Glass cremation ashes urn 'Elan' goldflake

Fire caught in glass

Some objects do more than hold. They speak. The Elan 'goldflake' cremation urn is one of them: a handmade glass sphere where gold tones and a soft pearlescent sheen come together into something genuinely arresting. If you are looking for a memorial that does justice to a life fully lived, this is a place to start.

Crystal glass, made by hand

The Elan line takes its inspiration from the four natural elements: earth, water, air and fire. It is fire that you feel most in this design. Each urn in the line is made individually from crystal glass, a process that demands real skill and close attention, and the result shows. No two pieces are identical. The goldflake is a special edition, available only in the 4-liter version, which gives it a distinct place within the collection.

Gold, pearl and fine surface relief

The combination of deep red tones with gold and a pearlescent sheen was not arrived at by accident. Together they suggest vitality and a life that had real color. A fine relief on the surface adds texture you can feel with your hand. The urn is not transparent: the ashes are held in an internal reservoir and are not visible from outside. The urn is sealed with a self-adhesive closing plate.

A choice that says something

You choose an urn for ashes not only because it is practical. You choose it because it reflects something about the person, and about the bond you shared. The Elan goldflake is designed as a piece in its own right, one that can sit with dignity in a meaningful place, whether indoors at home or outside as a grave ornament. It is suited to both.

Indoor and outdoor use

Crystal glass is a durable material, though placement deserves some thought. Outdoors, the urn holds up well to changing weather conditions. For extended exposure to hard frost, a sheltered spot is advisable. If you are placing it as a grave ornament, a stable, level surface will help prevent it from being knocked over. Indoors, it can be placed freely without any particular care requirements.

Creating a meaningful setting

Because this is a special edition cremation urn, it carries a quality that lends itself to a considered setting. You might think about creating a small memorial space around it: a photograph, an object that belonged to them, something that makes the connection tangible. The rounded form and the gold relief give everything placed nearby a natural weight and presence.

Worth knowing before you order

This funeral urn is a special edition piece within the Elan line, offered in the 4-liter format only. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The ashes sit in an internal reservoir, fully enclosed and not visible from outside, and the urn is sealed with a self-adhesive closing plate.
