custom boxes to hold the ashes of loved ones
you may want to spread the ashes of a loved ones to the wind or bury them beneath an oak tree. and, you may want to have a custom piece within your home that holds them close. our urns are made with deep reverence for those who have passed.
on ceremony…
ceremony is unique to each person.
sitting in meditation. dancing to music. working with your breath. reciting mantras. drinking tea.
for us, ceremony is the moments where we come into the present moment. to acknowledge and honor the divinity within all humans. to pay reverence to that which is greater than ourselves.
in front of your altar is the space you occupy to ground, to expand, to soften, to release, to heal, to breathe and to fully be human.
it is our greatest pleasure and our passion to work with wood and with you to co-create an altar that embodies your intentions and reflects the depth of your ceremonial practice.
