Beautiful. Natural. Sustainable.
At Wegnalls Willow Coffins, we believe in creating handcrafted willow coffins that are beautiful but also made with care and sensitivity.
Working closely with families is at the heart of what we do — whether it’s being involved in the design process or helping to weave part of the coffin. We are dedicated to offering kindness, understanding, and a personal touch during this meaningful time.
Providing families with a sustainable coffin choice is a key value for us, as we aim to reduce our impact on the planet. Our willow coffins are made using responsibly sourced, local materials, and we are continually refining our eco-friendly practices to honour this commitment.
Wegnalls Willow Coffins are:
- Lovingly woven in Leominster, North Herefordshire
- Suitable for cremation – Certified & Approved By The Funeral Furnishing Manufacturers’ Association (FFMA)
- Suitable for all types of burial – Traditional and Natural burial options available
- Eco-friendly and plastic free
- Woven with our homegrown willow and Somerset ‘buff’ willow
- Available with matching willow ashes caskets
- Customisable and you can help to weave part of the coffin
