Cloisonné Cremation Urns...

If you're looking for a beautiful vessel to hold the cremated remains of your loved one, you may find the perfect item in our collection of Cloisonné urns.

Cloisonné is the shaping of thin wires onto a brass or copper vessel, the thin wire is attached by soldering to the metal vessel. The space between the wire is then filled with the richly coloured enamels that give each Cloisonné its unique appearance, the Cloisonné is then kiln fired and polished to a smooth and lustrous finish.

Cloisonné's urns are suitable for burial, but most people prefer to display the Cloisonné in their home, these items are as much a piece of artwork as a cremation urn.  Taking care  for your Cloisonné urn is easy, a simple dusting of the surface with a soft cloth will ensure it keeps the lustre for years to come

Derived from the French word cloisonné, meaning division or partition, Cloisonné is also known as inlaid enamel, the Chinese  improved the enamelling method with their advanced metallurgical technology and manufacturing capabilities, eventually perfecting the art and making it their own. Cremation urns are believed to be among the earliest Cloisonné objects produced by the Chinese.
