Embrace Earthurns are also fully biodegradable and are designed for ground burial. Some of the Embrace Earthurns can be personalized with a photograph, measuring 3.5 inches x 3.5 inches. These urns are slightly smaller than the standard-size Embrace urns described below; please ask us if you would like any further information.
The Floral Bouquet Embrace Earthurn pictured above, features handmade paper flowers inset into the decorative blue top. There are also white and autumn leaves Embrace Earthurns available. The white Embrace Earthurn is made from a natural hemp covered base with a simple handmade paper top which is inlaid with floral material crafted by hand into the shape of a flower.
The Autumn Leaves urn is made from black handmade paper inlaid with real leaves. These urns are available in standard, medium, and mini sizes.
Should you wish to scatter you loved one’s ashes, you may wish to consider using a Scatter Tube. These are tubes made from recycled card, which can be recycled or composted after use, and which come in an extremely wide range of attractive designs. Please see below for some examples.
This biodegradable water urn is handmade using a centuries old paper making technique. The bark from the mulberry tree is harvested, leaving the tree alive and intact. After the bark is soaked, the resulting pulp is laid out on bamboo screens. When the Pillows come to be used, the ashes are placed inside a water-soluble bag, which is then placed inside the Pillow.
Sea Pillows are suitable for deeper rivers, lakes or the sea. When placed in water they will float briefly and then gently sink to the bottom, where they break down naturally over time. They are approved for use by the Royal Navy.
The Sea Pillows come in six colours and there are matching ‘mini’ urns available.
James was incredibly understanding and dealt with a difficult situation with care and attention. Nothing was too much trouble.
Having had experience with this company earlier in the year they were the natural choice when my wife died. Clair was absolutely brilliant from the initial enquiry and compassionately and clearly explained the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole range of options clearly laid out and explained. We really didn’t have to do anything ourselves. I would gladly recommend when the the time comes to anyone else.
Although my review is simplistic it comes from the heart. Without A H Freemantle's Park Gate & Titchfield offices I could never have got through what was and always will be my darkest hour. Thank you for looking after my beautiful mother, Gwen. Special thanks to Jane and Dawn. And thank you Jane for recommending the wonderful Rev. Boggust. My brothers, sister, and myself will always remember the kindness, respect, and compassion shown by all at A H Freemantle.
I would like to thank both James and Jane for the courtesy and respect shown to me and my family. They appreciated the tragic circumstances and were able to guide us gently through the Church service and subsequent committal at Wessex. You were as a company stars that day, showing us the way.
Sarah's kindness, genuine warmth, understanding of the personal character of how people say goodbye to a loved one, and inclusive approach, together with her knowledge and professionalism made me feel 'held' throughout the process of organising and being at my mum's funeral. It made such a difference at a difficult time. Highly recommend this company to anyone.
James and his team were extremely kind, thoughtful ad professional. As a family we appreciated the help and advice that was given.
From my first phone call to the completion of the funeral the staff at A H Freemantle gave outstanding service. They were professional and compassionate, taking time to listen to our requests and discuss the options. They made a difficult time easier and I knew I could trust them absolutely with the arrangements.
I can’t praise Claire at the Botley branch enough, who looked after my husband’s funeral. She was very professional, but more than that she was kind, caring, and nothing was too much trouble. Going above and beyond, which made this very difficult time so much more bearable for my family and I.
Extremely kind & considerate. Very professional. I felt supported throughout a very difficult process. Jane was fantastic, sensitive and caring and made me feel that she truly understood and cared about us all.
James and the team really are who you need by your side when you are facing your most challenging times in life. I've been in need of the services of A H Freemantle twice in a year having lost both my mother and father. Honestly I couldn't recommend them enough, at such a challenging time they really did do everything to make it as bearable as possible. I can not recommend James and the team enough, they were truly incredible from start to finish.
James and the team at A H Freemantle did the most fantastic job for us when my brother died suddenly and unexpectedly. They were very clear about the things I had to make a decision on - not there and then but in my own time - but they also completely took over and seamlessly managed all those other things that have to be booked and paid for. They also gave me great advice about how to handle the things I needed to handle. They contributed hugely to giving my brother the send off that he deserved and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend A H Freemantle to anyone else when that time comes and you need a funeral director.
