Hand Blown Glass Urn ‘Bella’ by American Memory Craft

Colourful hand blown glass urn from our friends in the USA. A stunning cornucopia of vibrant spring colours.

The beautiful pattern would work well in all sorts of settings and would even stand its own against Arts & Crafts wallpaper. Even our peacock, Jakey (you might be able to see him in the background) could not overshadow this piece!

For those who had loved ones that were joyously colourful in life.

This urn is a full-sized large urn that can hold the ashes of someone up to around 100 kg / 16 st.

Hand Blown Glass Urn – Artist

American MemoryCraft was formed out of the increased demand for more colourful and unique urns to be designed.   It is a collective of professional master glassblowers who have been creating memorial vessels for decades as individuals.

In 2008, while discussing and researching the changing and increasing demand for glass urns.  The collective group decided to attend the International Cemetery, Cremation and Funeral Association (ICCFA) National Convention in Las Vegas.  Presenting a broad range of glass from vessels to solid glass memorials.  Their urns were greatly received.  Attendees marvelled at the beauty of the glass urns.  A refreshing alternative to what was available at that time.  As a result, American MemoryCraft were inundated with orders from companies large and small.

By creating good relationships with those within the profession and families, American MemoryCraft expands as individuals.  Through sympathy and shared experience, empathy grows.  Using that empathy in a practical way.  They slowly use what they learn from people’s experiences and translate it into a practical application.  Resulting in an urn that resonates with the owner.

Based in Oregon, USA, American MemoryCraft currently consists of six master glassblowers.  Lee Wassink, Nathan Sheafor, Dennis Hoerauf, Jason Laret, Jason Laret and Steve Pechon.  Eli Beard is the Managing Member and Owner.

American MemoryCraft’s Urns has attracted custom from Germany, England and Australia.
