Coffins and 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.

This was the first time I have had to arrange a funeral for an immediate family member and I found Lorna from the Kentish Town branch both incredibly compassionate and extremely helpful in the circumstances. Lorna and Libby’s (our celebrant) guidance helped us pull together a well-received service for my late Dad. Would not hesitate to recommend or use again.

When my mother sadly passed away last month there was only one company that we would trust with her funeral arrangements and that was Leverton &sons. We left everything to them and they did not disappoint. A friendly, approachable and professional service from start to finish, thank you for making a sad time that bit easier.

We recently had a funeral with Levertons and as a family we were astonished by the impeccable service they provided. Their professionalism, support, dignity and overall knowledge was fantastic. Our family member Janet had pre paid her own funeral and this was a seamless service with no hidden fees. Deborah was so professional and polite and approachable that it made their service Ben better. Deborah's knowledge was second to none and made the whole process easier. Out family have been using Levertons for many years - over 25 years and this is why our family continues to to use their service..

I went with Leverton as I really had no idea where to start with planning a funeral, and a family member had used their services previously. Michael was enormously helpful at a very stressful time, making everything super easy for me when I had no idea how things worked. He was always at the end of an email with a quick reply whatever the question or request. On the day, the funeral service was really lovely and well run. All their arrangements went super smoothly and they accommodated whatever request we had. If you’re anything like I was (doing this for the first time, at a bit of a loss, and just wanting some kind help planning a good funeral) I highly highly recommend Leverton.

I cannot praise Leverton and Sons highly enough. The professionalism, organisation and empathy they showed in organising my mother's funeral was of the highest standard. There was incredible attention to detail and the service was flawless. A huge thank you to all involved.

I made my initial appointment with Lorna Walkden at Kentish Town Branch. My friend had passed very unexpectedly. Lorna made the whole Process easy for me to understand. Could not recommend Leverton & Sons enough.

Myself and family had exceptional service from Leverton & Sons. Very pleased and thankful for Lorna who helped guide me through the options with ease. Also much appreciation for the celebrant chosen for us Mr Andrew Pavlibeyi and the prompt and professional drivers. We would highly recommend Leverton & Sons services to anyone in need.

Lorna really made the whole expirience of organising my sons viewings and funeral very meaningful. She held me when my world fell apart and helped me piece together detailed tributes to honour my son Jamie. She was available in person, on the phone and via email when ever I needed. The funeral was beautiful. She made the hardest most painful time of my life very touching. Every detail was included and I felt guided and supported to make choices at my speed.

Leverton conducted both my parents’ funerals. Deborah is a consummate professional and their service was faultless throughout on both occasions. Thank you.
