Answer:
A cremation urn is a container used to hold the cremated remains of someone who has passed away. While a standard urn for ashes has enough volume to hold the complete ashes of an average adult, keepsake urns are cremation urns that are designed to hold a much smaller volume of ashes. Keepsake urns are useful for families that want to divide a loved one's ashes among several people or households, allowing multiple family members to each have a small memento of their loved one.
Answer:
Urns are typically used to hold the cremated remains or "ashes" of a person that has passed away, but urns, especially keepsake urns or jewelry urns, can hold other items as well. Other items that can be placed inside keepsake urns or jewelry urns include soil or sand from a burial site, dried flower petals, sentimental notes and other paper, fabric from a meaningful blanket or piece of clothing, locks of hair or fur, or anything else you can think of.
