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.

James and the team were truly exceptional — kind, professional, and deeply considerate. They guided us through one of the hardest times with genuine compassion and understanding, taking care of every detail with respect and sensitivity. Our family felt fully supported, and my brother was treated with the utmost dignity throughout. We are profoundly grateful for their help and care.

Levertons directed my father’s funeral in March, and I cannot thank them enough for their compassion and professionalism. Their respect for tradition and sensitivity to our family’s wishes gave my dad the send-off he truly deserved. They made difficult decisions easier to face and gently reminded us to focus on what was most important. I’ll always be grateful for the care and dignity they brought to every part of the process.

Very good and professional service. On the day of the funeral James and his team were very good, nothing was too much trouble and they were very helpful throughout. We found Michael extremely empathetic and informative when organising our mum's funeral.

Carmel at Levertons made what was a very difficult time very easy to navigate. Carmel helped us organise everything and when required was always available to give advice and assistance. My wife’s funeral was everything we wanted it to be.

We engaged Leverton's Hampstead for the funerals of my mother in 2011 and more recently that of my father. On both occasions Levertons supported us to deliver beautiful, personalised funeral services. They were respectful and supportive throughout and helped steer us through some very sad times.

Deborah Rush at Levertons was simply superb. She handled my grief in an empathetic but not cloying manner . Deborah’s attention to every detail was impressive. Further , after a brief description of what qualities I wanted in a celebrant , Deborah chose an excellent one , Ruby Warnock. All my guests at the cremation commented on how well everything had gone.
