FAQs

A bone inlay casket is a decorative storage container crafted by embedding hand-carved pieces of bone into a timber frame, forming geometric or floral patterns.

These caskets feature ethically sourced bone tiles fixed onto a wooden substrate using natural adhesives, frequently secured with metal hardware such as brass clasps or hinges.

Authentic bone inlay displays natural variations in tone, subtle surface porosity, hand-cut irregularities, and fine seams where individual tiles join together.

Place the casket on a coffee table, bedside stand, or bookshelf to introduce subtle geometric texture and neutral warm tones to contemporary rooms.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft dry cloth and avoid exposure to direct sunlight, high humidity, or harsh chemical cleaners which can cause tiles to loosen.
