A mini urn, also known as a keepsake urn or a sharing urn, is specifically designed to hold just a small portion of cremated ashes. People choose keepsake urns for various reasons, including being able to share the ashes among a few different family members. Some people only want to keep a small number of ashes and scatter the rest.
