Bronze,
a semi-precious material and an alloy of copper and either zinc or tin, is the
strongest and longest-lasting of any casket-construction material. Bronze is
resistant to corrosive elements, an important consideration in selecting a casket.
Aurora's bronze caskets are available with a hand-applied natural, brushed finish.
Bronze makes an elegant, exquisite remembrance. |

Most families select caskets for their beauty and finish.
But there are a lot of little things about high-quality caskets (such as those
from Aurora
Casket Company) that most people never notice--and that frankly aren't
meant to stand out.
Details in design, construction, and finish are meant to enhance
the display of the casket in an attractive and dignified manner and to keep
the tasks involved in handling, closing, and transport to a smooth minimum.
These are details that all good caskets share, but that not
all casket manufacturers provide.

Copper
is considered a precious metal and evidence of its longevity rests in the original
copper roof and pipes existing in the world's great architectural gems. It,
too, resists corrosion. Copper is one-third stronger than stainless steel and
available in 32-ounce weight. Aurora Casket copper casket finishes are natural,
brushed, or painted; finishes are applied by skilled artisans. This natural
and precious metal expresses a remarkable life. |

The
long-lasting nature of metal combined with its affordability and performance
make steel caskets one of the most popular selections. The range of colors from
respectful blues, browns, blacks, and grays to peaceful pastels in purples,
pinks, and blues, makes each selection unique. |

Our
hardwood caskets undergo a six-stage production process that ensures consistent
quality through craftsmanship and attention to details. Each casket spends 2
1/2 days in production resulting in a product that has the look of fine furniture.
Elegant corner pieces and moldings are sculpted by hand. After the casket is
completely assembled, the entire piece is hand-rubbed between multiple coats
of lacquer. Hardwood caskets are completed with a full-polished, hand-rubbed
high gloss or satin finish. |
