I think the answer is "No" and that is why I started creating these urns. Each is a work of art that will be at home in any setting. The quiet elegance of this urn will keep the memories close yet private.You are looking at the 6" Globe Urn with a volume of 42 cubic inches. It is suitable for the cremated remains of a pet up to 42 pounds. It is 5.7" tall, 6.3" in diameter  with an opening of 2.6" wide.This urn is glazed with a Lichen Green Matte Glaze.The lid can be sealed in place easily, my preference is a clear silicone caulking (available at hardware stores), but one can also use a 5-minute epoxy. If you will want to open it at some point I recommend museum wax (available free on request). Other Choices: To see more of these urns on eBay, Click Here. Choosing the right sized urn: Because people and pets come in a variety of sizes, Sonoma Urn Company offers a range of urn sizes, so you can choose the most appropriate urn for your needs. Urn sizes are given in cubic inches and refer to the capacity to hold a given volume of cremated remains. A general rule of thumb in determining the necessary volume is one pound of body weight produces a bit less than one cubic inch of ash after cremation. If you have any questions about sizing, feel free to contact me.How they are made: All pieces are original designs produced exclusively at Stony Point Ceramic Design. All of the work – from designing and making the molds, mixing the glazes, firing the kilns – is done at the pottery. The urns are slip-cast of stoneware clay, hand finished, fired, glazed and then fired a second time to a high temperature. The glazes are hand dipped, not sprayed. It takes more time and skill to hand dip, but it gives subtle variations in the glaze so that each piece has its own character.Marnipots is the nickname given by friends and customers to the ceramics of Marni Turkel. She is the creative force behind Stony Point Ceramic Design, a pottery in northern California where these fine urns are made. A noted ceramic designer, she has developed a distinctive style of understated elegance during her 40 year career in the ceramic arts. She carefully selects rich, subtle glazes that are wonderfully tactile, lending a look of softness and quiet dignity. Inspired by the shapes and textures found in nature, these urns have an enduring, timeless quality. Each is handcrafted in Sonoma County in the tradition of fine American craftsmanship. With Marni’s attention to detail, you receive consistent quality and excellent personal customer service.Shipping: The charge for shipping this item is $9.95 and includes insurance. I ship via Priority Mail and FedEx (my choice) as soon as possible after receipt of payment. Next Day and 2nd Day shipping are available on request as are shipments to AK, HI, and PR. Special shipping requests will be billed at cost plus a $3.00 handling fee. I have been shipping pottery for well over 30 years and breakage is almost unheard of. If there is damage during shipping, it will be replaced at no charge to you.Payment: PayPal is available through ebay. If you prefer to pay me directly, you can pay through my secure server using PayPal, Mastercard, Visa or American Express or mail a check/money order.
