Honoring a loved one’s memory is a deeply personal and meaningful process. Choosing the right urn is one of the many important decisions you’ll make, as it serves not only as a vessel for remains but as a symbol of love, respect, and remembrance. Extra large urns are a thoughtful choice for families seeking additional space, whether it’s to hold more ashes, preserve personal mementos, or contain the remains of two people.
Why Extra Large Urns Make a Difference
A typical cremation urn holds about 200 cubic inches of ashes. In contrast, extra large urns can store between 250 and 400+ cubic inches. This makes them ideal for a number of unique circumstances:
Holding the ashes of individuals with larger body mass
Serving as companion urns for couples or family members
Creating space for keepsakes like letters, photos, or jewelry
Temporarily storing remains until scattering or burial takes place
The Extra Large Urns collection at Yatskia Urns offers beautiful, high-capacity designs that meet both practical and emotional needs.
Superior Craftsmanship and Meaningful Designs
An urn should reflect the unique story of the individual it memorializes. Extra large urns are carefully designed using:
Premium materials like wood, brass, ceramic, and marble
Secure closures that provide peace of mind
Elegant and expressive designs, ranging from minimalist to ornate
Customization through engraved names, quotes, or meaningful symbols
These thoughtful details transform an urn from a functional object into a treasured heirloom that reflects your loved one’s legacy.
Practical and Emotional Reasons to Choose Extra Large Urns
Families often choose a larger urn for both practical and sentimental reasons:
Physical Necessity: Individuals with greater body mass require larger urns to hold their ashes properly.
Companion Memorials: Extra large urns can hold the remains of two individuals, ideal for spouses or close relatives.
Keepsake Storage: Space for small personal items can make the urn even more meaningful.
Flexibility: Additional capacity gives families the option to wait before deciding on burial or scattering.

What to Keep in Mind When Choosing an Extra Large Urn
To select the right extra large urn, consider the following points:
Volume: As a general rule, allow one cubic inch of space per pound of body weight.
Placement: Will the urn stay at home, be interred, or placed in a columbarium?
Material: Match the urn’s material to its intended location (indoor, outdoor, or temporary storage).
Design: Look for aesthetics that reflect your loved one’s personality and your family’s values.
Customization Options: Consider if you’d like to personalize the urn with engravings or other artistic features.
Taking these elements into account helps ensure that the final choice feels right and honors your loved one’s memory.
