casket
was normally produced from furniture manufacturers, but casket was not classified as furniture in common sense. We commonly classify casket as wood products not for furniture mainly thanks to its functionality is different from chairs and table alike. But they did have a lot of commonly characteristics especial for they both have strong connection with the culture of the regional people. We can easily find the elements of the culture from the casket made by people from different religion, section and custom. Why casket contains such enormous culture aspects. I assume the major reason is due to casket connect with death, how to treat the death and the birth of a people indicate the basic word view of a group of people who live in a commonly geographical condition which therefore generate the same religion and culture. From this point of view casket can not regarded as standard industrial products and to some sense it is a art products even though due to the modern society have a quick step and most corporeal things have been industrialized produced. Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Judaism are the major religion in the current word and each of them reflect the word view of its believer. So caskets also different from each other. For example Judaism believes people come from nature and should go back to nature when he died. So Judaism casket commonly usually do not used steel component like nail to produced the casket, even the glue which was used to adhere the wood table cannot been create from puppy fat, in addition to have to be produce from vegetable tallow. The structure printed on the casket also different, a lot of them reflect the traditions or the religion.
