5 out of 5 starsThis urn is even more beautiful in person. One of a kind, just like my girl Gertie. I’m so pleased with this purchase. Thank you, Candace! You are very talented!

5 out of 5 starsIf I could give this a thousand stars I would. It’s a stunning work of art. I searched for awhile to find the perfect urn for my best friend who recently passed. When I saw this, I knew it was the one. Shipping was fast, packaged very well and included a sweet handwritten note. Thank you.

5 out of 5 starsCandace created a custom urn for a beloved cat who had recently passed. I bought an urn from Candace back in 2011 for another cat who passed, so I was already familiar with the quality of her work. For this custom order, Candace communicated with me throughout the entire process, and the urn I received is stunning and exactly what I wanted. It is a work of art in addition to the final resting place for my cat, Jake. I will cherish it forever. I highly recommend Candace; she does amazing work and is truly a kind, caring individual. <3 Note: Shown in photo is custom urn (center) next to the urn I bought from Candace in 2011. The emblem I had requested for the custom urn is on the back and is also just what I wanted. Both are gorgeous!

Candace McCollough, Connection through Vessels
As a member of the Atlanta Clay Works, formerly Cabbagetown Clay and Glassworks, one has the freedom and the support to pursue any form of clay work one chooses.
I choose to mainly create and design vessels. It is satisfying and rewarding to help people find a special and unique resting or holding place for their loved ones. I was influenced to pursue this when I myself was in search of an unique and artfully-produced vessel.
The raku firing takes place in my back yard. I use a low-budget kiln with a portable burner. Colleagues are always eager to help with the process which can be exhilarating and awe-inspiring. No two pieces are ever identical.
