At DIY Funeral Products, we strive to get you premium quality at an affordable price.

Many of our adult urns are made-to-order & produced in small batches or individually finished, rather than held as bulk inventory.

As the crafting process begins as soon as you place your order, the Wooden Angel Urn takes up to 3 business days to produce, followed by approximately another 5 business days for delivery across USA, Australia and New Zealand.

This approach allows us to prepare each piece with care and respect, and support those who have chosen a personal and self-directed way to memorialize their loved ones.

We offer a 14-day return window for unused items in their original packaging, and we also replace or refund for any faults or defects. If anything isn’t right, we’ll work with you to resolve it promptly. For more information, please refer to our return policy here.

Please contact us at sales@diyfuneralproducts.com with your personalized request and we will add it to your order.

The Wooden Angel Urn is designed for:

  • Full-capacity storage of ashes (adult size)
  • Permanent memorial placement
  • Home display, burial, or columbarium use

If you require a smaller symbolic piece, our keepsake urns or memorial jewelry are more appropriate.

The Hand-Carved Wooden Angel Urn is not chosen in a moment. It is usually arrived at slowly - after the noise has passed, and the decisions that remain begin to feel more personal.

The wood carries its own quiet weight. It is not uniform, not repeated. The grain moves differently across each surface, shaped by time before it was ever shaped by hand. The carving follows that movement, not forcing it, but working within it. Each line is cut deliberately, each detail formed rather than printed.

The angel does not sit apart from the urn. It is part of it. Carved into the surface, not added to it. A figure that does not draw attention outward, but instead settles into the piece, less as decoration, more as presence. For many, it is understood without needing to be explained: something protective, something that remains when everything else has shifted. 

This kind of piece is often chosen by those who prefer to take part in the process themselves. Not to outsource every decision, but to decide where it sits, how it is kept, what it means within the space around it. It does not require ceremony to exist. It becomes part of the home, part of the environment, placed intentionally rather than formally.

It is not designed to feel distant or clinical. It feels made because it is. Each carving slightly different, each surface carrying its own variation, shaped by both material and hand. 

This urn does not define remembrance. It allows you to shape it.

Why Choose the Wooden Angel Urn?

Why Choose the Wooden Angel Urn?

A Complete, Considered Resting Place

Designed to hold all ashes, offering a single, settled place for long-term keeping.

Artistic Composition

The focal point is a striking bas-relief carving of a celestial angel in profile. The figure is characterized by expansive, layered wings and a gown that transitions into intricate, filigree-style scrolls. This “Tree of Life” inspired flowing linework represents the continuity of spirit and grace.

Architectural Framing

The urn utilizes a recessed shadow-box effect on the front face, which creates a natural frame for the artwork. The top and base are accented by continuous frieze bands of hand-carved botanical leaves, providing a sense of organic symmetry and structural “weight.”

Material and Finish

Crafted from dense, fine-grained hardwood (resembling Rosewood or Walnut), the piece features a multi-tonal finish. The darker, recessed background provides a sharp visual contrast to the lighter, polished honey tones of the raised carvings, enhancing the three-dimensional depth of the piece.

Form Factor

The rectangular pillar silhouette offers a clean, architectural presence. Unlike traditional rounded vases, this shape allows for stable placement on mantels, bookshelves, or within memorial niches.

Made for the Home

The decorative finish allows it to sit naturally in living areas, rather than feeling confined to a formal setting.

We believe meaningful memorial pieces should be accessible, allowing you to choose with care at a more considered, DIY price point.

FAQ's

Why choose a wooden urn?

Wood offers a warmer, more natural presence compared to other materials. Each piece carries subtle variation, giving it a more organic and personal character.

How do I know what size urn I need?


As a general guide, you’ll need approximately 1 cubic inch of capacity per pound of body weight. For example, an adult weighing 70kg (154 lbs) typically requires around 154 cubic inches. If you are unsure, choosing a slightly larger urn is always the safer option.

Can ashes be divided between multiple urns?


Yes. Many families choose to divide ashes across several urns or keepsakes so each person can keep a portion. This is a common and practical approach, especially for households in different locations.

Do urns need to be sealed?


Most urns come with secure lids that are sufficient for normal use. If you prefer a permanent seal, a small amount of adhesive can be applied, but this is optional and depends on how you intend to use the urn.

Are these urns suitable for keeping at home?


Yes. All the urns we offer are selected with home placement in mind. Designs range from minimal to decorative, allowing you to choose something that fits naturally within your space rather than feeling out of place.

What is the difference between a full urn and a keepsake urn?


A full urn is designed to hold the complete ashes of an adult, while a keepsake urn holds a smaller portion. Keepsakes are often used for sharing ashes among family members or keeping a small amount separately.
