Types of Marble and Stone Urns:
Natural Marble Urns
Quarried worldwide, marble is prized for its unique colors and patterns, formed by natural impurities like silt and iron oxides. Our white, green jade, and black marble urns showcase the beauty of nature, making each urn a one-of-a-kind memorial.
White marble urns, such as shown in the Taj Mahal Marble Cremation Urn, is pure marble created with few impurities. The Genuine Jade Cremation Urn is a great example of a stone urn embedded with lush, green emerald colors. Some marble comes in an intense, deep jet-black color, such as our Nero Marquina or Ebony Marble Cremation Urn.
Cultured Marble Urns
A durable, affordable alternative to natural marble, cultured marble is a blend of stone dust, resin, and pigments. These urns offer the same elegance, with a variety of colors and styles, such as our Cultured Marble Temple Cremation Urn. The glossy protective finish on the cultured marble urns cannot be scratched or dented.
Granite Urns
Valued for its strength and beauty, a granite urn is a timeless choice. Our Genuine Green Granite Cremation Urn is a stunning example of this hard, crystalline stone with a beautiful finish.
Why Choose Stone and Marble Urns?
Stone and marble cremation urns for ashes are long-lasting and perfect for home display, columbariums, or burial. Hand-carved marble urns have been used for centuries due to their strength and aesthetic appeal. Ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks recognized the marble's durability and used it for funeral urns as well as for roads, temples, statues and monuments. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City has cinerary urns made of alabaster and marble dating from as early as the 1st century A.D.
