4 Legged Sand Resin Pet Urn

$287.00

Crafted from sand resin in a distinctive four-legged sculptural form, this urn holds your pet's ashes in a piece that feels considered and unique. Sand Resin was intentionally chosen for this piece as a reminder of all their favourite beach walks. Available in two sizes, it sits naturally within the home as both a memorial and an object of quiet beauty.

Cast in sand resin and shaped into a distinctive four-legged sculptural form, this urn was designed to feel less like a container and more like a small, quiet object of comfort.

Choosing sand resin for this piece was very intentional. Joanna's dogs LOVED the beaches, and they still do. Having pieces made from real sand is just another beautiful way to carry their memory.

Designed to wear their collar around its neck, it should be placed on a shelf, sideboard or windowsill - somewhere it can be looked at and appreciated.

Every piece is designed by hand and produced in small runs, so very slight variation in texture and tone is normal.

If you're weighing up materials, our resin, clay, beechwood and bronze pieces each carry a different feel. This one is for anyone who wants something quietly distinctive: familiar in shape, but completely unique for a modern home.

Sand resin

Resin is one of the most durable materials available, and it's a favourite among sculptors for exactly that reason, it holds fine detail beautifully and is built to last. It's low-maintenance day to day. To clean it, a soft, dry cloth keeps its finish, and it's happiest kept indoors, out of direct sun and away from damp.

Because each piece is produced in small runs and finished by hand, very slight variation in texture and tone between individual urns is normal, not a flaw, a small mark of the way it's made.

Large - H24cm x W18cm x L25cm

The urn opens from the base to hold your pet's ashes securely inside. Each urn when delivered comes with this own guide on how to open and close securely.

It comes in two sizes: Small (800ml / 48.82 cubic inches) and Large (2000ml / 122.05 cubic inches). As a general guide, the Large size gives more room and suits bigger breeds, while the small size is a considered fit for cats and smaller dogs.

If you'd prefer a garden memorial, our outdoor collection is designed to endure the elements. Consider also whether you'd like a functional urn or a symbolic piece, both are equally meaningful.

As a general guide, one kilogram of your pet's body weight equates to approximately one cubic inch of urn capacity. So a 10kg dog would need an urn with at least 10 cubic inches of capacity. Several of our urns are available in two sizes to accommodate different breeds. You can check the capacity section above, but if you're unsure, feel free to contact us and we'll help you find the right fit.

Most pieces in the Rest By Me collection are functional urns designed to hold your pet's ashes. Each product listing indicates whether a piece holds ashes or is a symbolic memorial. Our outdoor figurine pieces work differently, the bronze figurine and post mark the spot while ashes are placed in the ground beneath.

This depends on the piece. Most indoor urns open at the top or base to allow ashes to be placed inside. Our clay urn can also be used as a biodegradable option, if ashes are removed from their plastic bag and placed directly inside, the entire urn can be buried and will biodegrade naturally. Full instructions are included with each piece on arrival.

Rest By Me pieces are crafted from a range of considered materials including beechwood, red gum timber, clay, brass, bronze, ceramic and sand resin. Each material is chosen for its warmth, longevity and suitability for the home. Material details are listed on each individual product page.
