Solid poplar under a satin finish, with a rosetan crepe interior over an adjustable bed. Poplar is a close-grained hardwood that takes a finish evenly, and this one is left quiet — no high gloss, no heavy ornament. It is built entirely of wood, which is what makes it suitable for a Jewish burial where metal is not permitted. Square casket corners, swingbar handles, half couch. It fits a standard burial vault. At $1,695 it is among the more affordable of our wood caskets, and one of the few at this price that is solid hardwood rather than veneer.
The casket is shipped in one of two special cargo compartments under the commercial passenger airplanes (typically American, Delta or United) apart from the other luggage. These two special compartments are where they store bodies and empty caskets. This is how the casket is packaged. First there is a thin layer of Styrofoam, followed by a layer of bubble wrap. Over that are placed large blocks of hard Styrofoam which provide most of the support as well as 5" thick styrofoam caps over both ends. Over that is a double-walled cardboard box and then another double-walled box over that. You can literally beat the box with a baseball bat and not hurt the casket. There is roughly 3-5 inches between the outer box and the inner casket so if the box is ruffled on the outside, the casket will not be scratched or dented 3-5 inches below the box surface. After it gets to the airport the hot-shot courier typically picks up your casket and delivers it directly to the funeral home in his van. We will email you to notify you that the casket has been delivered.
