Coffins & Urns

Coffins, Urns & Grave Markers

Choosing a coffin or urn is a meaningful way to honour your loved one. Our carefully curated selection offers quality, variety, and respect - all presented simply, so that you can find somethingthat truly fits their life and your family's wishes.

If you want something different, just let us know and we'll order it for you.

We are proud to have assembled a range of traditional coffins which are all approved by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), meaning that even our mahogany is from a renewable source in a properly managed forest. Solid mahogany originates in Africa and our oak is sourced from Canada and the US. Our veneered coffins also carry an FSC Kitemark.

Coffins for Cremation
We have listed our selection of wood veneered coffins and caskets with special fittings approved for cremation. All of our burial coffins and caskets are suitable for cremation also. You can also source your own coffin if you would prefer to.
Coffins for Burial
We have listed our selection of wood veneered coffins and caskets and solid wood coffins and caskets suitable for burial along with pricing. You can also source your own coffin if you would prefer to.
Eco Friendly Coffins
These coffins and caskets are all suitable for burial and cremation. On request, we can tell you more about each coffin; where the materials are sourced, where it is made and how it is transported. We are proud to say that of our standard wooden coffins and caskets, the entire veneered range has been awarded a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Kitemark.
Coffins for Children and Babies
The following list are all suitable for both burial and cremation. For natural burial or cremation we would recommend the Willow Baby Coffin or the Somerset Willow Crib shown. Children’s coffins vary in price according to size as well as design. We can help talk you through all of the options and guide you.
Grave Markers
Our wooden temporary grave markers are shown here. These can be left in place until such a time as the ground is ready for a permanent (stone) memorial, should you wish to have one. Every marker has an engraved weatherproof metal name plate included.
Urns
Ashes are often kept in a plain plastic urn unless a specific urn has been ordered in advance. We can provide eco-friendly boxes as an alternative to plastic. Urns are available in all kinds of materials from steel to alabaster, salt and papier-mache. They come in designs to suit every taste. Urns can be used to keep ashes in perpetuity, for burial or simply to transport the ashes to the place they will be scattered.

Recently, I dealt with the sudden and tragic death and funeral of a close family member, and was upset and shocked at the news of her unexpected passing. Fortunately, Laverson were outstanding in their support and help before, during and after the funeral. They carried out the whole process with calmness, consideration and great kindness. I am extremely grateful to them for their dedication and sensitivity and I would be absolutely lost without them. Thanks especially to Carmel who was a patient and superb professional at all times.

We were extremely grateful for the excellent support and assistance we received from Levertons. Lorna from the Kentish Town Branch made herself available to guide us and answer all our questions. As a family we felt that Levertons went the extra mile to ensure that everything was done to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend them to anyone who loses a family member. I would give them 11 out of 10 for their service.

The team at Leverton & Sons are incredible. We worked with Craig Parker who could not have been more friendly and professional. There is not one element of the service provided that we could find a fault with. We hope to not need to, of course, but if we do require funeral services again any time soon we will most certainly be working with Craig and Leverton & Sons again. Thank you very much Craig and team.

Drew at Leverton & Sons was a godsend. We met him amid shock and grief, unable to think clearly or know what to do, and he held our hand every step of the way. He never tried to sell—he simply listened, understood our needs, and offered guidance and information, going above and beyond. On the day of the funeral, he and his team showed immense respect and dignity, handling everything with such care. We could not have found better for such a dignified funeral and will be forever grateful. Highly recommend.
