Porcelain urn for ashes 'Maya' matte white

A quietness that stays

Some things say the most by keeping still. The Maya cremation urn in matte white porcelain holds a room's attention not by demanding it, but through its clean line, its pale surface and a form that has been thought through carefully.

Shaped by hand from porcelain

Porcelain is shaped by hand and demands both precision and patience. You can see that in the Maya. The surfaces are even, the matte finish consistent, with no gloss to pull the eye away from the whole. Porcelain feels naturally cool to the touch and brings a settled quality to any interior. It does not discolor or wear over time, so the urn will look exactly as it does today, years from now.

A compartment at the top

What makes the Maya distinct is the space built into its top. You can sit a small plant pot there, so that something continues to grow above where your loved one rests. Or you can keep the compartment closed and use it as a private place for something personal: a ring, a folded note, a small photograph. That detail makes the Maya more than a cremation urn. It makes it a place that keeps the bond you shared present in daily life.

Practical and considered

When you choose an urn for ashes, the practical questions matter as much as the emotional ones. Here is what you need to know about the Maya.

Filling and sealing

The urn is filled from the base, which is secured with screws via a fitted cover plate. The opening is wide enough to use a funnel, so the transfer of ashes can be done calmly and without difficulty. The Maya is suitable for use with or without an ash bag. Once filled, we recommend applying a small amount of sealant or adhesive around the cover plate for additional security.

Care and durability

Porcelain requires almost no upkeep. Dusting is usually enough. If the surface needs cleaning, a cloth with a little soapy water is sufficient. It will not discolor or lose its appearance with age, and no specialist treatment is needed to keep it looking its best. The Maya is designed for indoor use.

Handling and placement

Porcelain is a solid material, but it can crack or break if dropped onto a hard floor. Choose a stable, flat surface for the urn's permanent position and avoid spots where it might easily be knocked. Once it is settled in the right place, the Maya sits firmly and will not shift.

A place that belongs to both of you

The bond you shared deserves something that reflects it honestly. The Maya does that through its material and form, both of which will last. If you are looking for a funeral urn that fits a contemporary interior, holds something personal and needs no explaining to anyone who sees it, the Maya is worth your consideration.

Take the time you need to decide whether it is right for you. If you have questions about filling the urn, using the compartment or choosing where to place it, we are happy to think it through with you.
