Mahogany
Mahogany and mahogany-finish caskets
Mahogany has a deep reddish-brown colour that takes a high-gloss polish, which is why it is the classic choice for a formal funeral. A mahogany-finish casket has the same colour and polish applied over another timber: it looks very similar and costs less. We always tell you which one you are looking at.
Mvuli
Mvuli caskets
Mvuli is a strong, durable East African hardwood, sometimes called African teak or iroko, with a warm golden-brown grain. Mvuli caskets are heavy and solid, and many Kenyan families choose them for a parent or grandparent. Ask us on WhatsApp for photos of the Mvuli caskets we have today.
