| In
keeping with our belief in the principles of sustainability, State
of Grace offers a range of high quality, attractive and eco-friendly
caskets, as well as traditional options.
Solid
Macrocarpa Caskets

This
beautiful casket is manufactured in Auckland from macrocarpa, a
sustainably managed timber. It is lined with cotton and a wool mattress,
and the outer is polished with beeswax. Click here
to see more details.
Willow
Caskets

We
are proud to be the NZ distributors for these beautiful willow caskets.
They are hand produced by a sheltered workshop - Southland Enterprises
- in Invercargill. The Enterprise provides employment opportunites
for Adults with intellectual disabilities.
The
willow is grown and processed on the premises, and it takes John
two weeks to make each casket. We line them with unbleached calico
and a wool mattress, and cornstarch plastic.

Cardboard
Caskets

For
those wanting the simplest of options, we offer the plain cardboard
casket. It can be decorated by family, or left as is. We have a
wooden
'outer' for carrying, as shown. The casket comes with a woollen
mattress and pillow. Everything is New Zealand made.
Baby
Caskets
 
We
commissioned these caskets from Southland Enterprises as we felt
that current choices for baby caskets were limited. The little caskets
are passed on at cost. They have a wool mattress, covered in white
calico (click here
to see more details).
Other
Options
We
also offer a large range of other caskets, including LifeArt, a
recycled paper range from Australia, and many other caskets made
by Western Caskets in Auckland. Please contact us for details of
these.
