Classic Elegance. We're digging these White Porcelain Urns from Williams-Sonoma Home. The neo-classical shapes in a crisp and glossy white would look great in both a darker space or a light-filled room. Their dramatic proportions add height to a mantle or centerpiece and work with both modern and traditional decors...
Handled Urn, 6 1/4" diam. x 16 1/2" high
Tapered Urn, 7" diam., 22 1/2" high
Spherical Urn, 9 1/2" diam., 21 1/2" high
Each is $198.
Would you have a problem having urns in your home? We think some might!

Beautiful!
I have no problem with urns. Or coffins! Or bats.
There's something about these that draws me in immediately. Probably the juxtaposition of the traditional shape with the very modernist white glaze finish.
Those are so lovely. There's nothing wrong with having an urn in the house...
I love the zinc one, especially.
You can make anything in zinc and I'd pretty much buy it.
...I can't help but think of funerary urns. Gives me the creeps, though they are lovely simple shapes.
Oh, patrick (toh) - just for you - http://www.aswdetroit.org/AA-031005.htm - I go look at it occasionally, and the picture doesn't do it justice.
The urn shape predates the funerary urn.

Zinc tease!!!! :)
Funerary urns were used by ancient civilizations dating back to the Bronze Age... can you clarify, patrick (the other one)? Just curious!
