Biodegradable Fresh Flower Cremation Urn for Water Burial | Eco-Friendly Ocean Scattering Urn
Flowers have symbolized love, remembrance, and connection for over 60,000 years — and our biodegradable Fresh Flowers Cremation Urn brings that timeless tradition to life in the most meaningful way. Handcrafted from recycled paper and plant-based glue, this eco-friendly water burial urn offers a beautiful, natural farewell that celebrates a life well lived while honoring the earth.
Complement your water burial ceremony with our Mini Fresh Flower Biodegradable Urn — perfect for sharing ashes among family members or pairing with a full-sized ocean burial urn.
A Water Burial Ceremony Like No Other
This elegant water-soluble cremation urn features cotton fasteners on the lid, making it easy to attach fresh flowers of your choice. During a water burial or ocean scattering ceremony, the urn gracefully descends beneath the surface while the flowers gently detach and rise — floating on the water in a serene final tribute. Perfect for ocean burials, lake ceremonies, and aquatic memorial services, this floral cremation urn transforms a moment of goodbye into a lasting, living memory.

100% Biodegradable & Non-Toxic
This urn is made from recycled paper, wood, and plant-based glue, making it completely biodegradable and non-toxic to sea life and marine ecosystems. The urn will naturally biodegrade over time in large bodies of water. Please note: fresh flowers only — no plastic or silk flowers.
Float time varies depending on ash weight, weather, and water conditions. This urn is designed for a full portion of adult ashes to provide the necessary weight for sinking. For a partial portion of ashes, add weighted material such as stones to ensure the urn sinks properly.
Handmade with Purpose
This ocean burial urn was designed by Paper Turtle and handmade in Mexico by skilled artisans using time-honored techniques and sustainable materials. Your purchase directly supports fair-wage jobs for craftspeople preserving a traditional art form — making this not just a memorial product, but a meaningful act of community support.
