After my fur baby passed, I wanted an urn as special as she was. I couldn't find one, so I made it myself.
One sculpture, made out of grief and love.
It came out so well that when my second baby died, I did the same for her. Seeing their faces in 3D instead of only in photos made the grieving easier, and made it feel like they were still here with me.
Tailored, hand finished, and made to hold what matters.
Choose a soft stone or gold leaf finish, a silver, gold, or rose gold plaque, and the words that belong on it. Choose the urn version and we build a sealed compartment sized to your pet, so their cremains stay safely with you.
A face you can hold, not just a photo on a shelf.
Whether your fur baby is still with you or has crossed the rainbow bridge, they deserve to be remembered like this. Browse the collection, send us your photos, or just reach out and tell us about them. We take every commission personally, because we have been on your side of it twice.

"Creating custom busts for the ones that leave paw prints on your heart."
I sculpt every piece myself in Fort Wayne, Indiana. This started after I lost my own girl and couldn't find an urn that felt worthy of her, so I made one. Then I made one for my second baby too.
Now I make them for other families. Tailored to each pet, crafted by hand, and built to safely hold their cremains if that is what you need. Send me their photos and tell me about them.
How It Works
From your photos to their bust
Send Their Photos
Pick your finishes and share three to five clear photos of your pet. Front, both sides, and any shot that captures their expression.
Start an Order →Sculpted By Hand
Every bust is sculpted from scratch for one pet. Ear shape, coat texture, markings, and the look in their eyes.
See the Process →Ashes Compartment
Choose an urn version and we build a discreet sealed compartment, sized to your pet, so their cremains stay safely with you.
View Urns →Engraved Plaque
Silver, gold, or rose gold. Their name, their dates, or the few words that say exactly who they were.
Choose a Plaque →Delivered With Care
You approve progress photos before we finish. The piece ships in protective packaging, or you can pick it up in Fort Wayne.
Shipping Info →Choose the finish you want, pick your plaque finish, and tell us what the plaque should say. After checkout we email you to collect photos of your pet. Clear, well lit shots from the front and both sides help the most.
Three to five is ideal: a straight-on face shot, one from each side, and any photo that captures their expression. If you only have a few, send what you have and we will work with it.
Absolutely. Many people do. A bust made now becomes a keepsake later, and there is no rush or hard decision to make in a difficult moment.
Yes. Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, birds. If they left paw prints on your heart, we can sculpt them.
Urn busts are made with an interior compartment that is sealed after the cremains are placed inside. It is discreet from the outside, so the piece reads as art, not as an urn.
No. The compartment is built for you to fill at home, with simple instructions included so you never have to part with them.
We size it to your pet. Tell us their weight and we will build the interior volume to fit the full cremains.
Not after it is finished, so if there is any chance you will want the compartment, choose the urn version from the start.
The bust comes in a soft stone finish or a hand applied gold leaf finish. The plaque can be silver, gold, or rose gold.
Whatever you need it to. Their name, dates of birth and passing, or a one to four word description of who they were.
Markings, ear shape, coat texture, and expression are all sculpted from your photos. Mention a collar or a special detail in your order notes and we will include it where we can.
Roughly four to six weeks from the day we receive your photos. Each piece is sculpted, cured, and finished by hand, one at a time.
Anywhere in the United States, packed in protective foam. Contact us before ordering for international shipping.
Yes. We are in Fort Wayne, IN. Mention pickup in your order notes and we will arrange a time.
You will. We send progress photos at the sculpting stage so you can ask for adjustments before we finish the piece.
Dust with a soft dry cloth. Keep it out of direct sun and away from damp areas. Gold leaf should never be cleaned with chemicals or water.
Send us a photo within seven days of delivery and we will repair or remake it at no cost to you.
Because every piece is sculpted for one specific pet, custom orders are final sale. This is why we share progress photos before finishing.
Families we have made busts for
“Seeing his face in 3D instead of only in photos changed something for me. It sits on the mantel and it finally feels like he is still part of the room.”
Rachel — Bear (Black Labrador)
“The likeness is uncanny. Dovah asked for a few photos from different angles and somehow caught the exact way he tilted his head.”
Marisol — Pumpkin (Tabby Cat)
“Knowing her ashes are safely inside something this beautiful gave me a peace I did not expect. The plaque says exactly what I needed it to say.”
Dana — Poppy (Cairn Terrier)
“I ordered while my boy was still with us and I am so glad I did. It was made with real care, and the gold plaque is stunning in person.”
Tyrell — Kaiser (German Shepherd)
