For Homes or Cemetary, funeral urns that are built to last
Whether you choose to display your urn in your home or bury it in the cemetery, your Maple Nail urn is built for it.
If you choose a burial, we recommend a vault to house your urn, to keep the elements away from the wood. Some frequently asked questions about vaults can be found below and here.
Do you need a vault to bury an urn?
Vaults are a requirement at many traditional cemeteries. Please talk to your cemetery or funeral director to determine if a burial vault is required.
Why do you need an urn vault?
If you’re planning on burying your urn, some cemeteries require the use of an urn vault. A vault reduces the risk of your loved one’s urn getting damaged by water, soil, or other underground elements. A vault also helps prevent the risk of ground collapse from heavy equipment that is often used in cemeteries.

I was looking for something special to rest my parents. My Mum passed 2019 and I decided to keep her ashes to go together with my Dad. He passed recently and that made me look for the best box, I’m very pleased to have found this one. It is beautiful, solid. Delivery was excellent. Import charges annoying but despite that, only the best will do for my parents.

I have been shopping for the perfect urn to honor my parents who passed 17 months apart. I was searching for a companion urn that was beautiful, yet simple. John did an amazing job on the companion Urn that he made and it is precisely what I wanted to honor my parents. I am so happy with my purchase. I chose the black walnut because my father planted many black walnut trees on our family property when I was growing up. Included was a beautiful ‘Thank You card’, and the Urn was well packed. I am more than satisfied with my purchase and so glad I was also able to support a small business in the process. Thank you, John, for your beautiful work.

Beautiful! 100% top quality!My experience with John was beyond wonderful. I was having problems finding an urn to fit in the mausoleum that was purchased by my parents for the time of their passing.I was having one issue after the next and during such an emotional time John made a custom urn in no time! He is so quick to respond and he artfully crafted a stunning urn with fast shipping.
