Urns are used to hold the remains of a body that has been cremated. They are made from many materials including bronze, marble, porcelain, ceramic and hardwoods. Urns come in many different styles and sizes. They may be square, rectangular, cylindrical or even a piece of sculpture. Prices vary according to the craftsmanship and materials for each urn.

Urns may be kept at home in remembrance of the person. They may be placed in the family's cemetery plot or a niche in a cemetery mausoleum. Smaller portion urns are available for families who wish to divide cremated remains among family members.

Families wishing to bury urns may be required by their cemetery to purchase permanent containers or vaults. This outside container will preserve the urn and keep the ground from sinking at the grave site.
