When it comes to modern interment vessels, there are so many more options and variations available than ever before. Whether an individual opts to have their remains placed in a casket or in a decorative container; to have them buried, entombed or spread to the winds, there are multiple ways to personalize the occasion. For many, beautiful and classic metal cremation urns are the resting place of choice.

For many people, choosing an eternal resting vessel for themselves or a loved one, is a decision based largely on what best fits the personality of the intended inhabitant. A lot of survivors find it comforting to have a representation of the deceased displayed in the home. Though attractiveness is a big factor, one will also need to consider some practical issues.

In addition to properly representing the individual inside, interment vessels need to be fitting to the circumstances in which it is stored. If the intention is to have it openly displayed, it should be pleasing to the eye and complementary to the surrounding decor. Containers being buried are best constructed from highly durable materials.

Style is but one aspect of what will make a suitable container for an individual's ashes. The material from which it is made is also very important to ensure that it will be adequate for the circumstances in which it will be kept. Some of the more popular metallic substances used for this purpose are copper, brass, bronze, pewter and stainless steel, each with their own set of strengths.

To adequately fill the needs of a wide range of individual tastes and desires, these containers are manufactured in many different styles, sizes, types, styles and shapes. An always popular choice is the traditional urn that is an asset to the decor of any room. Some people opt to go for a more modernized version such as a cylinder, a box or even a specialized sculpted piece.

Eternal resting vessels are also a beautiful way to pay respect to a special part of one's life. Some people who have shared a very special relationship in life often choose to be together after death so they opt to be placed in a Companion Urn which is specially designed to house multiple individuals. When the deceased was a firefighter, rescue worker, police officer, military personnel or worked in any other service field, their container may be emblazoned with emblems or engraved to show respect.

Keepsake ash holders have been growing in popularity in recent years. These often take the shape of jewelery boxes or as photo frames in which a photo of the deceased may be displayed in remembrance. This is a very common choice in situations when multiple survivors wish to retain a portion of their loved one's remains as a small amount of ashes can be placed in several containers.

Keepsake pieces of jewelry, designed to hold just a small amount of ash, are often made from pewter, brass or silver. Lockets or hollow pendants on chains are often given to those who were special to the deceased as a way of always being close, even after death. The traditional interment vessel has been modernized and customized to fit the needs of many.
