Peace and Serenity with the Teardrop Cremation Urn

TearDrop Cremation Urn

Although cremation urns are available in a remarkably wide array of designs, one particular design that is a bit of a standout is the teardrop shaped urn. It’s simplicity and sleekness are aesthetically pleasing to the eye. But it’s more than just it’s design that attracts those experiencing loss. The teardrop design might be a perfect urn for a mother or father or grandparent because of the power of its symbolism and the emotions it often evokes.

 

The Symbolism of the Teardrop Cremation Urn 

When we think of teardrops, there are usually two thoughts that come to mind. The first is that of its namesake- the tear itself. While we cry when we are most often sad, sometimes we might also find ourselves crying in moments of pure joy and happiness, or excitement.  It’s the power of our own emotions that lead us to tears. As such, the teardrop has long been a symbol for emotionality, loss, or sadness. It is one of the few symbols that reoccurs during our worst days as much as our best days.

The other symbolic connection of the teardrop is to rainy days. A cloudy and rainy day is one that can often make us feel calm and at peace, but with a touch of sobering sadness. We are pensive on rainy days, thoughtful and remembering days past. It’s another strong emotional state that connects to the teardrop.

 

When a Teardrop Cremation Urn is the Perfect Choice

Along with the symbolism of the teardrop cremation urn and the emotions attached to it, the teardrop shape itself is one that is a sleek and modern design, which goes well if you wanted to display it in a contemporary home. The subtle coloring of the dual tones is enough to be eye-catching, but while remaining modest obscure. A slight texturing on both the bronze and black adult urns also adds an element of depth. If you are looking for an urn to display in the home without looking like a more traditional-style urn, this might be the perfect urn to house the ashes of a loved one.

Aside from the teardrop shaped urn, are the delicate and elegant cremation jewelry pieces. These are meant to be worn rather than displayed, like an urn, but can be a moving and powerful way to keep your loved one close. Made of sterling silver, they are durable but well-made, and remain a more subtle symbolic reminder of your loss.

The keepsake urns are a third option for the teardrop shaped urn. They are smaller than the traditional sized urns and allow for a family to share smaller or mini urns and allow each member to keep a piece of the loved one at home.

Memorializing with Teardrop Urns

Regardless of whether you might prefer to keep the ashes in a traditional-sized urn, separate it among family members, or keep a small memento around your neck, the teardrop is a powerful emotional symbol. As a remembrance of a loved one, the symbol can help bring you peace, serenity, and sobering clarity as you hold on to those powerful memories.
