A vessel as enduring as your love
Handcrafted in Aotearoa New Zealand
Beautiful, handcrafted cremation urns made from natural New Zealand clay — each one unique and made with love and intention.
Born in a moment of grief
Our Story
When my mother Barbara died in 2023, I wanted to honour her with something she would have chosen herself — simple, beautiful, and utterly unique. I couldn't find it anywhere.
So I made it. Together with Craig Spencer, a New Zealand ceramicist whose work stopped me in my tracks, we created Vaso — vessels handcrafted from natural clay, made to be treasured.
We want you to smile every time you catch a glimpse of your Vaso vessel, and think of that person with love and fondness.
— Bridgit, Vaso founder
Craig Spencer, ceramicist
Our Maker
After a career as an interior designer in Sydney, Craig discovered pottery in 2018 and never looked back. His wheel-thrown and slab-built vessels blend architectural precision with organic form.
His work is held by private collectors and has been commissioned by Aesop. Every Vaso vessel is made by his hands.
Testimonials
Words from our grateful customers
I have been constantly searching for an urn for my husband for a year now; so many urns out there that just weren't 'him'!
I read your story about your Mom and not being able to find something that was appropriately nice and worthy of her. Vaso (and you) were exactly what I needed to find.
We have been searching for a vessel that felt right but was also a piece of art that was created with purpose and love. It's been 3 years and we have finally found one with Vaso.
