Woodturning – Creating a Beautiful Memorial Urn
2 min read
In this video, watch the journey of an extraordinary handcrafted urn come to life — a true celebration of expert woodworking and artistic vision.
Starting with rich, natural-grained wood, each segment was carefully cut on the bandsaw and arranged before being encased in a deep pour of stunning blue epoxy resin. Once cured, the entire piece was turned on the lathe, revealing breathtaking contrast and elegant curves.
For functionality and long-term durability, this urn features a precision-fit lid secured by a brass threaded insert. Multiple layers of high-gloss lacquer bring out the depth, colour, and character of both the wood and resin, giving the urn a luxurious, glass-like finish.
This substantial, thoughtfully crafted piece serves as a dignified and beautiful final resting place for an adult — a true heirloom that balances craftsmanship, artistry, and meaning.
