Biodegradable Calla Lily Urn, Water Burial Urn, 200 Cubic Inches, Adult Size, Floats Briefly, Sinks Gracefully, 100% Biodegradable, Made in USA

We bought a different brand first, and it was absolutely huge and required. Glue of some sort to make sure didn’t fall apart. This one was more like a box for clothing, lightweight, and with tape that sealed everything. It came with a certification of being biodegradable Which the private sailing tour appreciated. Floated for about 45 seconds, before sinking rather quickly. Overall, it was a really classy and ideal experience. Will attach a photo for reference. I wouldn’t say it’s the sturdiest of options, but it’s not like you wouldn’t be careful with a box of a loved one’s ashes anyway.

We used this to scatter my dad’s ashes in the ocean, it is big and beautiful, I didn’t realize how solidly made it was. It was a beautiful piece to use to fulfill his last wish.

Knowing that we wanted to send my Dad's ashes off in to the Atlantic in Newport, RI, we wanted to make sure that his ashes would actually make it down in to the water (not float on top or get stuck to a passing boat). A little looking and I found this! It was exactly what we needed. We were able to transport Dad's ashes in to the water-soluble, included bag and tie it up, placing it inside the outer case and using the included glue to seal the edges; leaving it to dry overnight with the included clips placed all around the edge to help truly seal it together. The shell design was beautiful and we had a nice moment where we all stood in a circle and passed it around so each could hold Dad one last time and say something if they wanted to, before the 3 siblings held it and threw it into the water. It floated on the surface for several minutes before it began to break apart and sink, but it was getting hammered pretty hard against some nearby rocks due to the waves. I was really impressed how long it stayed intact with how much it got moved around. If you're looking to do a water spreading of your loved one's ashes, I highly recommend this product as their final vessel.

We used this product to bury my wife’s ashes at sea, and it performed as promised. The disk is about 18” in diameter and about 8” in depth, which was more than adequate to hold all of her ashes. The shell is made of a compressed paper mache material, with a beautiful design on top. It floated for about 5 minutes and prevented the potential for ashes to be blown by a sea breeze on spectators. Well worth it.

Works well, but becareful when handling the material it is a little fragile. The included clamps and glue work good. A little hint, once you do the initial gluing let dry and reglue the seam again just incase a spot or two was missed. You can also put glue on any little inperfections, this will keep it afloat longer. We did ours in Hawaii and it was a beautiful tribute to our daughter, I think you will be quite happy with it!

This was a wonderful purchase. We were able to put my father's ashes in the water where he grew up and lived for most of his life. Our urn floated for about maybe 10 minutes, I was unable to really watch the time. I did take video and counted from it. The water was calm and there were very gentle waves and that gave us more time. We all were able to pray and say the things we needed to in memoriam of my father. It was truly a wonderful way to place my father's ashes. It was a very dignified way to celebrate someone who loved the water as my father had. I highly recommend this product.

A lot of money. Looks like a tortilla wormer. Way over priced trying to please my husband.his parents and brother.

A beautiful container for a memorial at sea. Ours floated for at least a couple of minutes if not longer. I do wish the assembly instructions had been more detailed as I found the process of putting it all together and gluing it shut properly to be stressful especially given the emotional nature of the process. Try to spread the cremains in their biodegradable bag evenly around the bottom bowl of the container. I worried at first that they wouldn't all fit but they easily did. Definitely heed the instructions to use all the glue and clips to fasten the lid. Set it up on a box on a table as you work so you can see all of the edges well, and try to have a helper if possible. I used 4-5 clothespins in addition to the clips provided as it seemed there might be gaps otherwise. My guess was that gaps would lead to leakage and quicker sinking. Also be aware that the edges become fragile as they get moist with glue so try to work relatively quickly as you wipe off excess glue. I allowed two days for it to dry but one full day probably would've been enough. Because of the type of boat and the conditions we had to sort of drop ours from a foot or so above into the bay but it landed flat and upright and floated away beautifully. We had a lightweight biodegradable floral wreath placed around it that also floated and made for nice effect.
