The lighthouse is a symbol of safety, guiding others home. It is solid and strong, made to weather wind and storms. Lighthouse urns incorporate these ideas, and they can be a beautiful way to remember a loved one who has passed away.
Lighthouse urns from Perfect Memorials are made with quality and attention to detail in mind. Choose from a variety of material options, including the following:
- Brass
- Bronze
- Wood
- Stainless steel
- Cold cast resin
Choose from a classic vase style urn, a sculptural urn, or a decorated box or cube. The image of the lighthouse may be engraved on the urn or attached as an applique or photo plaque, depending on the specific urn. Different lighthouses and locations may also be available, including cliff and coastal images.
How to Select an Urn
It can be difficult to choose the right lighthouse urn for your departed loved one, so we've put together a guide on How to Choose the Right Cremation Urn. This guide will help explain what type of urn to choose depending on where the urn will be placed, how to determine what size urn you need, and how to transfer the cremains. If you plan on putting all of the cremains into the lighthouse urn, it's important to get one that's big enough to hold them all. You'll need an urn with at least 1 cubic inch of volume for each pound of weight before cremation.
If you plan on keeping the urn at home, you can choose any style and material that you believe honors your loved one's memory. Place your urn in a location where it is visible but protected, away from the risk of bumps or damage. Most urns only need routine dusting to keep them clean and looking their best. Wood urns should be kept away from moisture and humidity.
Personalization Options
Most lighthouse urns can be personalized with custom engraving before shipping. You can select your engraving options right on the product page, and we can often complete the personalization the same day. If the urn that you are considering does not show any engraving options, please call our helpful customer service staff at 1-800-979-8767. Our team can tell you if the specific urn can be engraved, as well as suggest alternatives if it cannot be.
