At Yatskia, we believe urns should offer more than function. They should carry meaning, emotion, and presence. Whether you’re planning a memorial, creating a quiet space at home, or sharing ashes among family, choosing the right urn is part of the healing process.
Here’s how to approach this decision with care — and a few beautiful urn options that honor different types of legacies.
The Classic Choice: Timeless Cremation Urns
If you're looking for something traditional and elegant, Yatskia’s collection of cremation urns offers designs that never go out of style. These urns are ideal for those who lived with grace and strength — the quiet supporters, the steady guides, the dependable souls.
Made from durable materials like aluminum and ceramic, these urns are simple yet refined. Their understated design makes them suitable for display at home, placement in a niche, or burial. Many families find peace in choosing an urn that reflects timeless dignity — because some people leave a legacy that doesn’t need decoration to be powerful.
A Mother’s Love, Forever Remembered: Mom Urns
There are few losses more personal than the loss of a mother. For those seeking a tender, feminine tribute, Yatskia’s mom urns are created specifically to celebrate the love, strength, and beauty of motherhood.
These urns feature soft colors, floral engravings, and warm finishes that evoke the care and warmth mothers provide throughout their lives. Whether she was a caregiver, a guiding light, or the emotional heart of the family, a mom urn can help express what words can’t: deep gratitude, endless love, and a bond that remains unbroken.
Many families choose to place these urns in areas where they can still feel her presence — near windows, in a garden space, or on a bedside table — bringing comfort day by day.
For the Ones Who Rose Above: Phoenix Urns
Some lives are defined by transformation, strength, and resilience. They rise from difficulty with renewed spirit — and leave behind a legacy of inspiration. For these extraordinary individuals, the Phoenix urns collection offers a meaningful way to celebrate that journey.
Featuring bold designs inspired by the myth of the phoenix — the bird that rises from its own ashes — these urns symbolize rebirth and eternal life. They are ideal for honoring someone who faced life’s challenges with courage and who burned bright with passion, creativity, or perseverance.
A Phoenix urn doesn’t just mark the end of life. It represents transformation — a soul continuing beyond what we see, full of fire and spirit.
Gentle Souls, Lasting Impact: The Purple Butterfly Urn
Not everyone needs to be loud to make a difference. Some people move quietly through life, offering kindness, compassion, and grace. For those gentle spirits, the purple butterfly urn is a tribute that captures delicate strength and emotional beauty.
Butterflies are powerful symbols of change, hope, and spiritual transformation. The color purple, associated with peace and wisdom, makes this urn a calming presence in any room.
This urn is often chosen for daughters, sisters, best friends, or anyone whose energy brought light to those around them. It's a beautiful way to honor someone who touched hearts simply by being themselves.
Tips for Choosing the Right Urn
Here are a few considerations to help you feel more confident in your decision:
Think about their personality: Were they bold or soft-spoken? Traditional or unique? Let their spirit guide your choice.
Consider the setting: Will the urn be kept at home, placed in a columbarium, or buried? Different materials are suited for different environments.
Size matters: Standard adult urns typically hold the ashes of one person, but keepsake urns and companion urns are also available.
Customization: Adding engravings, photos, or symbols can make the urn even more personal.
Final Thoughts
Choosing an urn can be one of the most emotional steps in the memorial process. But it can also be deeply healing. It gives you a way to pause, reflect, and celebrate a life that mattered — in a way that feels meaningful to you.
Whether you’re drawn to the timeless elegance of cremation urns, the soft warmth of mom urns, the fiery symbolism of Phoenix urns, or the gentle beauty of a purple butterfly urn — know that your choice is part of a legacy.
It’s not just about remembering who they were. It’s about keeping a piece of them close — with honor, love, and peace.
