FAQ – Animal Funeral Sculptures
We understand the importance of this last tribute.
Find here all the information about the creation of our cinerary statues and the special care we take with your pet's ashes.
Elegance, quality, material & durability
Why choose a statue rather than a classic urn?
We are proud to offer an artistic alternative to traditional cremation urns. They are designed to be more personal and deeply refined.
These modern creations discreetly blend into any interior, allowing you to bring your companion back into your daily life.
May I use ashes that have been stored for several years, or do the ashes have to be from a recent cremation?
Absolutely, there are no time limits whatsoever.
Whether the loss of your faithful companion is very recent or you have kept your dog, cat, or exotic pet's ashes at home (in a cremation box or classic urn) for many years, our manufacturing process remains perfectly identical.
What materials do you use for funerary sculptures?
We use an exclusive blend of organic and mineral materials.
This technical process allows us to achieve an appearance similar to natural stone, ensuring both the elegance of a work of art and the longevity of a memory.
What does the statue look and feel like?
Our statues offer a raw, natural, and mineral appearance. To the touch, the material is soft and slightly textured, reminiscent of the nobility of stone.
Other custom finishes are available upon request: Custom Creation
Are the statues fragile
Thanks to our exclusive material, our sculptures are very solid.
It is a durable object, but it remains a piece of art: it can break if it falls violently onto a hard surface.
Can I put my pet's statue in my garden?
Our decorative urns are primarily designed for indoor installation (including verandas, solariums, mantelpieces).
As with any material, prolonged exposure to harsh weather (frost, UV, rain) may slightly alter their appearance.
Is it legal to turn an animal's ashes into a piece of art?
That's right. Our business and manufacturing process have been officially validated by the Rhône Prefecture (DDPP). This guarantees you compliance, traceability, and complete transparency.
The Creation Process
How are my pet's ashes incorporated into the statue?
The ashes are not simply inserted; they are an integral part of the artwork. They are homogeneously mixed with the other components to create a unique mineral material.
This process transforms the ashes into a solid, respectful, and durable funerary sculpture.
How much ash is needed to create a sculpture?
We incorporate a very large quantity of ashes into the material (up to 85% of the final composition).
The required quantity depends on the animal's breed (cat, dog, NACS) and the volume of the chosen commemorative statue.
What happens to unused ashes?
In most cases, all of the cremation ashes are used to create the artwork.
If there is any surplus, it will be entirely and respectfully returned to you with your order, unless you specify otherwise.
Can I order a custom statue of my pet?
Yes, we create custom sculptures from photos; If you'd like a faithful reproduction of your companion rather than a model from our collection, visit our dedicated customization page: Custom Creation
I can't find my animal's breed or a model that suits me?
Our collections are constantly evolving. If you can't find a statue for your pet or if you want a custom creation, Contact us
Logistics & delivery
How to safely send ashes?
We have implemented a strict protocol for ash transport, enabling us to guarantee their traceability.
Once your order is validated, you will receive:
- A prepaid and secure shipping label (with tracking).
- Precise packaging instructions.
- Upon request, a suitable shipping kit can be provided to ensure the integrity of the transfer to our workshop.
What is the manufacturing time for a commemorative artwork?
The creation of a sculpted urn requires time and precision. For the statues in our "Collection", please allow approximately 3 weeks for manufacturing from the receipt of ashes in our workshop.
How is the finished work packaged for return?
We put as much care into the packaging as we do into the creation.
Your statue is protected in reinforced packaging, designed to absorb shocks during tracked and secure transport.
Every companion and every memory is unique. If you can't find the answer to your question, we are here to assist you.
