The process

The waterurn has a diameter of about forty centimeters. There are several compartments in the interior of the sphere. The lowest compartment can accomodate the ashes of two loved ones.The rainwater seeps gradually inwards through two narrow, circular grooves and comes into contact with the ashes. The ashes will be gradually released into the earth with the water. It takes about ten years before the ashes are completely delivered to the earth. Thus, in time the sphere becomes a cherished garden ornament. The process starts only when you decide.
