We're pleased to introduce our new collection of urns for ashes at Memorials Direct, featuring elegant teardrop cremation urns and smaller heart-shaped keepsake urns.
Choosing an urn for a loved one's ashes is a personal decision, and we understand the importance of finding something that feels right.
Our new range offers a choice of beautiful designs, colours and sizes, whether you're looking for a cremation urn to display at home or a small keepsake urn to hold a portion of ashes in memory of someone special.
Our New Range of Urns for Ashes
Our collection includes two different styles of urns, each designed for a different purpose.
-
Teardrop Cremation Urns: Approximately 10 inches (25cm) tall, featuring elegant curved designs, silver detailing and a decorative heart.
-
Heart-Shaped Keepsake Urns: Approximately 3 inches (7.5cm), designed to hold a small portion of cremation ashes and lie flat when displayed.
Both styles are available in a choice of attractive finishes.
Teardrop Cremation Urns – An Elegant Tribute
Our new teardrop-shaped cremation urns offer a distinctive and elegant way to remember a loved one.
Standing approximately 10 inches (25cm) tall, each urn features a graceful curved shape, a glossy white finish and silver decorative detailing.
Heart-Shaped Keepsake Urns for Ashes
For those looking for something smaller, our new range also includes beautiful heart-shaped keepsake urns for ashes.
These miniature urns measure approximately 3 inches (7.5cm) and are designed to hold a small portion of a loved one's cremation ashes.
Unlike traditional upright cremation urns, our heart-shaped keepsakes are designed to lie flat, making them suitable for displaying on a shelf, bedside table or another special place at home.
A keepsake urn can also be a thoughtful choice for families wishing to share a loved one's ashes between family members, allowing each person to have their own personal remembrance.

What's the Difference Between a Cremation Urn and a Keepsake Urn?
The main difference is the amount of ashes each urn is designed to hold.
A cremation urn is generally intended to hold a larger quantity of ashes, while a keepsake urn is smaller and designed to hold just a small portion.
Keepsake urns are often chosen by families who wish to divide ashes between loved ones or keep a small remembrance alongside a larger urn.
When choosing an urn, it's important to check its capacity, as the outside dimensions alone do not determine how much ash it can hold.
Choosing the Right Urn for Your Loved One's Ashes
There is no single right choice when selecting an urn for ashes. What matters most is finding something meaningful to you and your family.
Some people prefer an elegant urn that can be displayed in the home, while others choose a smaller keepsake that can be placed somewhere personal.
When choosing an urn, consider:
-
Size and capacity: Whether you need to hold all or just a small portion of the ashes.
-
Design: A finish, colour or shape that reminds you of your loved one.
-
Where it will be kept: Whether you plan to display the urn at home or keep it somewhere private.
-
Family wishes: Whether other family members would also like a small keepsake.
Our new collection offers several designs to help you find a tribute that feels right.
