Constructed using a special box & lid design using 100% materials made from wood, this casket contains no metal parts which makes it well suited for Hmong funerals.
The cedar wood is hand select for the best quality of grains and character, and they come standard with a smooth box design, a two piece raised lid, and solid wood handles. The interior is fully padded and lined, including the lid. The colors are matched to the over-all tone of the wood, with your choice of liner colors on pre-order models.
Our traditional Hmong caskets are made from Port Orford cedar, also known as the Lawson cypress which is native to Oregon and northwestern California and the valleys of the Klamath Mountains, often along streams. The wood known for its highly fragrant ginger aroma, is light yet has great strength and decay resistance, and is particularly valued and in high demand in East Asia.
