Cremation Urns

One of a kind craftsmanship and welcoming customer service can assist you in honouring your loved one.

Individually Handcrafted Memorials

Each urn is individually crafted to reflect the natural wood grain pattern. Every urn can be engraved with your choice of words and fonts at no extra charge, to signify your remembrance of your loved one. The urn of your choice has been crafted with respect, integrity and passion.

“I received my pine cremation box today and I wanted to write and compliment you on your product. … I was amazed when I unwrapped it today – it is rare that an item exceeds my expectations so much or that it actually looks better than pictured, but that was the case. Simple but beautifully crafted! I will certainly not hesitate to recommend your company to others.”

Sincerely, Michael H Baltimore, Maryland

Just wanted to let you know my family is so happy with the box. My
dad would have loved its simple beauty. The box joints are lovely. The
cremation guy said he thinks it’s the best he’s ever seen.

We wanted a Canadian made urn for Dad who had worked with wood throughout his life. Daniel's wooden urns are beautifully made and offer thoughtful ways to personalize them for your loved one. We highly recommend Quintessential. Thank you Daniel.

Made In Canada, With Care

Quintessential Canada is proud to be a part of the Made In CA movement — a commitment to Canadian craftsmanship, Canadian jobs, and Canadian values. Every urn we make is handcrafted in Mississauga, Ontario, from sustainably sourced wood, by skilled artisans who take genuine pride in their work. When you choose a Quintessential Canada urn, you’re not just honouring a loved one — you’re supporting a local Canadian business that believes the things that matter most deserve to be made at home.

Ontario Wood Partner

The Ontario Wood program promotes the use of locally grown and sustainably harvested wood products from Ontario’s forests. It encourages consumers to support the province’s forestry sector by choosing wood products made in Ontario. The program highlights the environmental and economic benefits of using local wood, such as reducing transportation emissions and supporting local jobs. By selecting Ontario Wood products, consumers contribute to sustainable forest management and the provincial economy.

Ontario Made

Quintessential Canada is a certified member of Ontario Made, a program managed by Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) that champions products genuinely made right here in Ontario. Every urn we craft at our Mississauga workshop meets that standard — designed, built, and finished in the province we call home. Choosing an Ontario Made product means investing in local manufacturing, local employment, and the kind of hands-on craftsmanship that simply can’t be outsourced. We’re proud to carry that designation, and even prouder to have earned it one urn at a time..
