Michelangelo's Pieta Cremation Urn - Engravable

A beautiful replica of the Renaissance masterpiece, the Pieta is considered one of Michelangelo's greatest works in the history of art. This famous work of art depicts the body of Jesus on the lap of his mother, Mary, after the Crucifixion. Michelangelo's mastery lies in his ability to capture the delicate balance between grief and grace, infusing the sculpture with a sense of peace and acceptance. This paradoxical beauty speaks to the resilience of the human spirit and the capacity to find solace even in the midst of profound loss. Crafted with the finest materials, this urn is made from high-quality, durable resin. The urn's smooth surface is meticulously hand-finished to achieve a flawless, marble-like appearance, reminiscent of the original masterpiece. This remarkable masterpiece combines the eternal beauty of Michelangelo's iconic sculpture with profound significance.

Urn Size & Filling Information

This urn is 260 cubic inches in volume making it suitable for a loved one who had a healthy weight of 260 lbs (117.94 kg) or less, making it suitable for most adults. The urn's outside dimensions are 13" L x 9-1/4" W x 14-1/4" H. Make sure to double check the weight of your loved one, ensuring this urn is the correct size.

On the bottom of the urn is a removable panel with a d-ring closure to secure it shut. The panel has a rubber gasket to keep the inside of the urn air-tight. To fill the urn the panel will be removed, a bag containing your loved ones remains is placed inside and the panel is put back in place.

Displaying & Burying The Urn

This urn makes a great work of art to display in your home. The bottom is covered in felt to avoid scratching any surfaces this may be displayed on. However, if the plan for this urn is to be buried, it is important to consider a burial container. Burial containers will protect the urn from damage when buried as it is not meant to carry the weight of burial on its own. The Crown Vault Urn Burial Containers are made from lightweight polystyrene. It can withstand 4,300 pounds of top load pressure on a single vault! This container is designed to protect the urn and any other keepsakes inside when buried. A wide lip allows the vault to be carried easily and allows for a clean adhesive application; adhesive is included.

Personalizing This Urn

This urn offers two separate optional plaques and you can choose a silver or gold finish. A personalized plaque brings another level of personalization for a lasting family momento, passed on for generations. The addition of a loved ones name, legacy dates and their titles (father, mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, etc.) are most common. This urn allows for a total of 4 lines with 65 characters each to fill with any custom text you'd like in either Times New Roman or Monotype Corsiva font. There is also room at the bottom of the plaque to have an optional poem engraved. An optional poem plaque, in a gold or silver finish, is also available for the back of the urn.

The plaque is completed on a material that is the same the urn is created with. This ensures that the engraving matches the urns colors and the integrity of the entire piece remains the same. The engraving and urn will never fade, tarnish or rust.

The plaque is not attached to the urn prior to shipping. This allows the freedom for each person to adhere the urn as you see fit with the included permanent adhesive. See our easy plaque application instructions to make the process a breeze. If the need for an additional or new plaque arises, the plaque can be purchased separately from the urn, too.
