Would you want to design an urn for a loved one’s cremated remains? The folks at Foreverence think you do.
Foreverence uses a 3D printer to produce tribute urns that truly reflect the life of the deceased. In this video recorded at the NFDA convention, Pete Saari shows the one-of-a-kind urns the company produces and talks about the production process.
Each ceramic composite piece is designed to reflect the life of the deceased, with input from the family. Foreverence can incorporate the tiniest details in each design. Some of the examples on display included a piano, a guitar, a ’57 Chevy and a cowboy hat.
The envisioning of the object that inspires the fondest memory of a loved one – such as a hobby, a passion, a work of art – can be made based on a conversation, a photograph, an idea, item or sketch. The conversations can help funeral directors build a deeper and more memorable bond with the family.
Their memorial keepsake urn materials range from ceramic, metals and a variety of composites. The finished product is an exceptional, individually crafted work of art.
If your family members plan to be cremated and keep the remains, these unique artistic urns can provide a treasured keepsake to be passed along to succeeding generations.
