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.

Levertons, and their funeral Director, Deborah Rush made a difficult time easy. Highly professional and understaning, they provided me an dmy family with a very high quality service and the funeral was provided in a respectful and dedicated way. Many thanks to Deborah and her team.

Julie at Levertons was absolutely lovely. It's a time when you're not thinking straight but Julie led us through the process of planning Mum's funeral with real patience and humour. This a great local business and I thoroughly recommend them.

I had never arranged a funeral before and when my brother died I made a leap of faith and chose Leverton & Sons as the funeral directors. I could not have chosen better. From the moment I spoke to Andrew Leverton I knew I was in kind and careful hands. Throughout the process from the collection of my brother from the hospital to the final service I felt supported and guided. Andrew Leverton was always available to speak to me on the phone and gave me thoughtful advice on the contents of the service, the choice of crematorium and recommended an excellent celebrant. The service for my brother was carried out with great dignity and professionalism. I would like to add special thanks to our driver for his kindness. I would recommend Leverton & Sons wholeheartedly.

Deborah was unstintingly thoughtful and compassionate throughout what was a very difficult time, taking care to explain everything clearly and sensitively, and all the other members of her team I spoke to were just as considerate. I really, really cannot recommend Leverton and Sons highly enough.

I genuinely can't put into words how amazing Lorna and the rest of the team have been in my recent experience of arranging my father's funeral. It's the first time in my life that I've really had to engage and deal with death, let alone having to arrange a funeral after the death of a parent. Needless to say, it's been a difficult time. Lorna at the Kentish Town branch has been supportive, compassionate, sensitive, endlessly knowledgeable and, above all, patient with me during this entire time. The result has been an amazing send off for my father - one that he deserved. Funeral directors are one of those services that we hope we won't have to use again, but if the time comes, I won't hesitate to return back to Levertons. Thank you all so much.
