Choosing a coffin can often be the hardest part of the funeral arrangements because it’s a very visual part of the process. We will make this as easy for you as we can, taking into account what you believe reflects the personality or wishes of the person whose funeral you are arranging. It might just be as simple as the one you like the look of the most or whether you have a specific wood finish or budget in mind.
James Brown & Sons Funeral Directors offers a selection of traditional veneer and classic solid wood coffins in a range of finishes, as well as a natural wicker and an eco-friendly cardboard coffins.
Our experienced team will be happy to talk through the options to help you choose the right one for your loved one.
