Characteristics of oak wood

Oak is a very dense hardwood, dark in colour, with a clearly visible grain. It is the traditional wood associated with solemnity and longevity.

The weight is considerable — the coffin is heavier for pallbearers to carry. In return, it is the most durable option in the standard range. For an exotic alternative, see the mahogany coffin.
