Description

This willow (wicker) coffin is woven by craftsmen and women as part of a co-operative of cottage industries in Poland. It is a natural light cream colour.

This type of willow (wicker) coffin can look even lovelier with the addition of flowers. Because they are woven it is easy to attach flowers to a willow coffin. As well as the flower arrangement on the top of the coffin often a garland can be attached around the coffin and individual posies too. More information on how to decorate a willow coffin.

A willow coffin is 100% biodegradable, and is suitable for traditional burial, woodland burial, and cremation. It is FFMA tested and certified, and CCSA approved for quality and we can provide certification. They are very strong and tested to bear heavy loads.
