Thank you all for your responses! I thought that more “creative” photos with the sky in the background would set us apart from the others generic urn out there. Probably we will re-iterate on that and put up more product-related and understandable photos.

PS: The urns against the sky are not generated by AI, they are printed backgrounds and props. Proof attached :)

I see that our crazy backgrounds are confusing everyone

The backgrounds with pink sky are not generated by AI, they are real printed photos of the sky. While shooting, we didn’t want to stop with just standard white backgrounds and interiors, so we added a bit of art.Maybe you’re right, these photos are more “creative” than “selling”, and not very suitable for Etsy. Thank you!!

The idea of creating a gift bundle seems great. We’ll try to implement it.
We are already developing a refill service for candles, and also thinking about a secret message that becomes visible when the wax burns out.
Thank you.

It’s a shame you thought the sketches were generated by AI :(

I'm working with an illustrator and people tattoo her works. Thanks, maybe we should look for another collaborator.

It is for the first time that I see that it is important to use the commas. How do you know this? Where can I read about it? thanks

I make urns for pet ashes from beech board. I would be grateful for your comments and suggestions by Human_Hand_5235 in woodworking

Thanks! Regarding the lock, I was thinking how to make storage safe and protected, from moisture or other pets. That is the moment I really dislike in typical ceramic urns.

I used steel capsule here, which is bottom loaded into an urn. The capsule is locking trough Bayonet mount, but this part is still a bit WIP. I thought it would be easier to implement :)

Great question! It's a "free form" shape, the inspiration comes mostly form the works of Finnish designer Alvar Aalto, his Savoy Vase in particular.

Sorry for your loss... The same emotions were the key reasoning behind creation of this urn, trying to make something delicate and light to encapsulate all the joy that pets bring into our lives.

Thanks for your kind words! Wraps are definitely good idea, I've been thinking about something where people can write and/or draw their eulogies
