Hand-Crafted Quality Biodegradable Urn - Scattering Urn

  • Fabricated by hand from recycled and earth-friendly materials
  • Biodegrades naturally in water
  • Engineered to float for approximately five minutes before descending gracefully
  • TSA-compliant for "in-cabin" airline transportation

Biodegradable Water Burial
The Journey Earthurn is perfect for water burial. It is engineered to float for 3 to 5 minutes before gracefully descending. Once on the ocean floor it will break down naturally.

Biodegradable Ground Burial
Journey Earthurns are fabricated by hand from recycled and eco-friendly paper which breaks down naturally" when buried. They are durable, with no "shelf life" and will NOT begin to biodegrade until they are buried in the ground. Each Earthurn included an EPA-approved, biodegradable plastic bag.

Scattering
Journey Earthurns are perfect for scattering. They open easily to facilitate the scattering process. Families that plan on purchasing a Journey Earthurn for scattering over water should be advised to remove the biodegradable bag with the cremated remains from the urn and place only the bag in the water. The bag will dissolve, dispersing the cremated remains, and the Earthurn can be kept for the storage of personal mementos. Each urn is handmade and may vary slightly in appearance.

The Environment
Earthurns are manufactured with the environment in mind. The tree bark used to make the paper is harvested from the mulberry tree in such a way that the tree continues to grow, undamaged. This sustainable process is centuries old and ensures the preservation of ancient forests.
Once the bark of the tree is harvested, it is soaked until soft and then laid out on to bamboo screens where floral materials are inlaid by hand. The screens are then placed in the sun to dry. The resulting paper is used to make beautiful and environmentally-friendly urns.

Great presentation

Reviewed By: Diane Leep on 08/31/2010

The "envelope" gave a nice presentation for the grandchildren and children. We could easily open it and let them see what "ash" is all about.

The white sash did come apart immediately when I layed it in the water, but it simply floated down at a gentle slope.

I thought the pricing was a bit high at $100.

Excellent Craftsmanship

The biodegradable urn was even better than we thought it was going to be. It floated on the water and slowly submerged as advertised.
