Specifications & Handcrafted Features

Every piece is uniquely hand-thrown, meaning your pet remembrance vessel will feature natural variations in shape and finish, reflecting the unique, one-of-a-kind bond you shared with your dog.

It is delicately accented with a raised heart on the side and a tiny bone on the removable lid, both highlighted with a rustic wash to bring out the natural texture of the earth.

Care, Cleaning & Maintenance

To preserve the beautiful finish and structural integrity of your ceramic jar, gentle and minimal maintenance is key.

• Simply wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth to remove dust.

• Do not submerge the vessel in water or use harsh chemical cleaners, as this could damage the delicate iron oxide wash on the bone and heart details.

• Place it in a secure, stable location out of high-traffic zones to prevent accidental chipping of the hand-thrown clay.
