Review on Near Dear Pet Memorials Pawprint by Louis Nakashima

The product has a comfortable weight and is of good quality. The copper on the lid is bright but doesn't feel cheap, and the paw prints on the top are a nice design element that's not too noticeable. There are only two downsides: 1. The lid is a little tricky to screw on properly so it doesn't screw open crookedly or stick. 2. While the raku coloring is fairly accurate and has a pleasing appearance, the finish is very glossy giving it a noticeably smoother/metallic appearance which is not really a sign of raku ceramics. It looks more like copper that has been oxidized with a blowtorch and then polished to a mirror finish. It's still an attractive urn, but if you're looking for an authentic raku look, you may be disappointed.
