About The Cane Coffin

Available in Traditional or Curved shaped coffins. Handcrafted using woven cane, sometimes referred to as wicker or rattan, with an off-white appearance and skilfully finished by hand using traditional basket-making techniques. The rattan used for our coffins is harvested from the forests of South East Asia, where rattan clings and grows up existing forest trees like a vine. Rattan has been known to grow as much as six metres in a year, making it a great renewable material. The coffins are available in two differing shapes, curved end (rounded) and traditional shape (square), each tapering from end to end. Both styles come in a range of finished sizes with natural rope handles and fully fitted with natural linings, pillow and covers.
