There is now such a thing as a dildo-shaped urn.

A beautiful tribute? Or beyond creepy?

If you’re sick and tired of the stock-standard urns on the market these days, all your dreams are about to come true.

You can now put your loved one’s ashes in an urn shaped like a dildo, so it’s technically like you’re having sex with them after they die.

While our first reaction was to say “this is horrible and bizarre”, the designer actually has a sort-of-nice explanation as to why he created this invention.

Mark Sturkenboom calls his creation the ‘memory box’. It houses an acoustic amplifier (who knows?), the scent of your dead spouse’s aftershave (okay…) and the transparent dildo that is actually quite fancy.

Sturkenboon says it’s for widows and is meant to be romantic.

“By bringing different nostalgic moments together like the scent of his perfume, ‘their’ music and reviving the moment he gave her her first ring, it opens a window to go back to moments of love and intimacy,” Sturkenboom said.

“She is able to have an intimate night with her sweetheart again.”

Except of course she can’t. Because he’s gone.

Watch this space for the male-version, which we’re sure is coming soon.

If there was ever a time to look at these things that resemble penises, it’s now.

Would you ever buy a dildo urn?
