Where to find 'Urns'?

Looking for an "URN" just for decoration.
Maybe to be used in a grouping.
NOT FOR PLANTING or ASHES.
Something about 3 feet TALL and Narrow.

I'll be glad to buy...but where?
Not sure if anyone can help but I figured I'd ask.

I really like this urn but it's not sold outside of the UK.


These are really cool...not for sale found on a blog.


This one was found a web site. No sale.


Traditional roman urn

Hi, I would try Home Goods, TJ Maxx and Marshalls - seems to me I've seen big urns there lately. Pier 1 would probably have them as well.
Incidently, this morning on Urban Outsiders they made a stunning water feature out of a brass or copper urn the homeowners bought on a trip to Asia.

I just saw some almost identical to the top pic at Target yesterday. They were a reddish color...$299.99 each.

How much's a Greek "urn"?
A Greek earns about $10 an hour.

Sorry.
Now back on topic:
Go to a local pottery shool/hobby shop/studio, and commision them to make you a few.

Will do TJ Max, Marshalls and Pier one.
Maybe even target.

They do have interesting home decorating items.
Garden Marts have nada.

Thanks,
Patsi
