Smooth Sandstone Cylinder with Receptacle Pet Memorial
The Smooth Sandstone Cylinder with Receptacle is a modern take on our popular Eternal Sandstone Candle, and is a tasteful and timeless tribute to your beloved pet. Each candle is handcrafted from a single piece of sandstone, with a smooth top and a deeper than average receptacle. The sandstone is a completely natural stone, meaning that it's suitable for both indoor and outdoor display.
The front of the cylinder is deeply engraved with your pet's name, dates and a graphic, as desired by you to create your perfect personalised memorial. Alternatively, for a more discreet and subtle memorial and ashes container, you can choose to leave the cylinder unengraved.
The cylinder has a receptacle that holds approximately 150cc of ashes, so depending on the breed and size of your pet, you may be able to inter the full ashes, or possibly just a portion. Either way, it means you'll be able to keep your pet close by, cherishing their memory for years to come.
Mock-ups are for illustrative purposes only. A detailed artwork proof will be emailed to you for approval before production begins.
