Today’s post began as a short look at purple urns, in keeping with this month’s focus on the astrological sign Pisces, and the birthstone associated with February, the amethyst.
But, I left something out in the most recent post. One online source, Astrology-Zodiac-Signs.com, declares the colors associated with Pisces go well beyond the pure deep purple of the amethyst; listing “mauve, lilac, violet, and sea green” (source). This opens up our selection options considerably.
Purple and Pewter Adult Urn for Ashes
Inexpensive and engraves beautifully, the Purple and Pewter urn is classically styled in deep color with contrasting black for a dramatic finish.
Purple Cremation Urn Necklace
This lovely pendant is actually a vial for ashes. I love the modern styling of the Cremation Urn Pendant with Purple Stone, with its subtle touch of purple. I think it’s both understated and very ‘classy.’ It’s a grand companion to this next full-sized purple urn.
Purple Mother of Pearl Adult Urn
The Purple Mother of Pearl Urn is a beauty. Rich, dark purple with inlaid mother of pearl chips as a decorative trim. It brings to mind the words of artist Amira, Queen of Creativity: “Purple is the color of royalties. It stands for luxury, wealth and sophistication. It is also the color of passion, romance and sensitivity” (source).
Lavender Mist Cremation Urn and Keepsakes
If purple is too strong a color for you, consider these two matching urns The Lavender Mist Urn, and its companion keepsake urn, the Lavender Mist Mini-Urn. How subtle the color; and the classic styling is very pleasing to the eye and it engraves beautifully.
Let’s Not Forget Green Urns
One of our clients was on the hunt for a green and gold urn to honor her departed husband and his love for the Portland Timbers.

This beauty is the style that spoke to her, and although she was planning a memorial service, she was willing to wait for the urn.
Venturing into the realm of ‘sea green’, there’s the stunning Green Sea Breeze Cremation Urn. Hand-crafted in America by a master potter; the urn measures approximately 7.5-8.5″ high and 7.5-8.5″ wide.
If you love the styling, but want to stay in the purple spectrum, you’ll be delighted to know this urn is also available in a lovely shade of lavender.
This post offers just a smattering of the dozens of purple urns in the Urn Garden Collection. I suggest using the search bar on the homepage to discover the others. Just type in “purple” and the dropdown box will deliver its suggestions.
Next week begins a new month – and spring inches closer. I see signs of its arrival in the faces of the daffodils and the swollen buds on the Japanese maple by my front door. All I need do now is to be patient…and watch the falling rain. Enjoy this time of transition!
