ARTISAN CERAMIC URNS

ABOUT ROOKWOOD
Rookwood’s remarkable history begins in 1880 with its founder, Maria Longworth Nichols Storer. Storer was a trailblazer, creating the first female-owned manufacturing business in the United States. Her vision for Rookwood was to produce ceramics that were beautiful and of exceptional quality.
Distinctive styles - from intricate patterns to vibrant glazes - came to define Rookwood pottery. Rookwood’s dedication to innovation and excellence earned it a special place in the world of art and design.
Every urn in the collection is a masterpiece, crafted with timeless ceramic techniques. While each urn shares a common elegance, no two are identical, ensuring that each one stands as a distinct tribute to a life well lived.
