Abstract
A storage container for cremation ashes comprises an outer decorative container with a hollow interior of generally rectangular shape. A similar rectangular inner container is formed of a transparent plastics material with a sealable end cap so that the ashes can be inserted and contained within the hollow inner container and displayed through the transparent material of the inner container. This presents the ashes in a hygienic appearance without danger of spillage.

A storage container for cremation ashes comprising an outer decorative container, formed of an opaque material, comprising a base wall for resting on a support surface and upstanding walls defining a hollow interior, and including an openable lid allowing access to the hollow interior;
- and an inner container mounted in the hollow interior of the outer container, the inner container being separate from the outer container and removable therefrom through the lid, the inner container being formed of a rigid plastics material and having a base for resting adjacent the base wall of the outer container and cover walls defining with the base a hollow interior of the inner container, one of the base and the cover walls having an opening therein which is closed by a sealed cap so that the base, the cover walls and the sealed cap form a fully closed, sealed enclosure surrounding the hollow interior, and cremation ashes contained within the hollow interior of the inner container, the base and cover walls of the inner container being mechanically connected such that removal of the cover walls through the lid necessarily carries the base therewith.
