Vase (3)
I believe the answer is:
urn
'vase' is the definition.
(both can mean a container)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for urn that I've seen before include "Ossuary" , "Receptacle for ashes of the dead" , "Tea vessel or ash container" , "Vase for containing ashes" , "Vase; tea vessel" .)
