Marble urns are graceful and elegant memorials. Their history as cremation urns stretches far back into history, and so does the origin of marble itself. 

Marble is a metaphoric rock beginning its life deep within the earth as limestone. Limestone undergoes a metamorphosis when it succumbs to intense heat and pressure within the earth. Most marble is white with stripes, but its also found in other colors like pink, green, brown and grey.

Marble urns are as unique as those they memorialize since no two urns will ever be exactly alike.  Their popularity as cremation urns is on the rise, and so are the variety of shapes and styles.
