Words that denote a cremation urn built by the Kiefers: Heirloom quality, Handcrafted, Integrity, and a commitment to producing the
finest wood urns.
The business of creating cremation urns found us, not the other way around. Bruce wrote a poem titled "The Keep It Box" The poem grew from an awareness that most treasured memories reside in a small box, or drawer. They never thought of it as a wood urn. They began to build solid cherry wood boxes, with the poem engraved on a pewter plate, which They attached to the lid. Part of the poem states "This is the place where memories live" They found that many people were buying our Keep it boxes as a cremation urn. A cremation urn, They were so profoundly touched and honored by the knowledge that our creations are chosen to hold such precious memories. Cremation urns grew to a business from there. Wood urns are warm to the touch. Each of our cremation urns has a hand rubbed finish. Our goal is that the completed cremation urn be a work of art.
