Small Urns
“An urn can be
beautiful as a
feature, drawing
the eye to a
favoured point
in the garden
- a focal point.
Either planted
or unplanted,
the urn can
add beauty to
a garden all
year round.”

Did you know?
Urns are among the oldest of
garden ornaments and dating
back to Greek and Roman
antiquity. For this reason, many
have classical designs.
Urns are usually covered with
a lid, with the earliest examples
being funeral urns. Romans
placed such urns in niches.
Small urns have many uses
indoors and out, they work very
well in a small alcove or nook.
They can also be used as a
small self-contained fountain.
