For a unique, hand-crafted memorial to a departed loved one, choose one of our beautiful keepsake cloisonne urns. Originating in France, but perfect by artisans in China and Japan during the Middle Ages, cloisonne combines metalwork and enamel in rich colors and intricate designs. Our cloisonne sharing urns are meant to hold a small portion of a loved one's cremains or other mementos and are called "sharing urns" because families may want to distribute their loved one's ashes among their members.
