Caskets by Design was founded to provide families with high-quality, affordable wood caskets and coffins—without the excessive markups common in the funeral industry.
We manufacture and ship beautiful, dignified caskets directly to the public (and to funeral homes) from our workshop in Langlois, Oregon.
Our mission is simple: Deliver exceptional craftsmanship at factory-direct prices so families can focus on honoring their loved ones rather than worrying about costs.
Caskets by Design is a true family business, owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Mike and Terri Hurley.
Mike brings decades of woodworking expertise to every casket. He transforms raw lumber into sturdy, beautiful pieces that combine traditional craftsmanship with modern durability.
Terri manages sales, shipping, materials procurement, and customer service—ensuring every order is handled with care and compassion.
When things get busy, their son Jeff pitches in with lumber preparation and assembly. In his free time, Jeff forges custom knives, makes custom hats & ukalalies.
What started as a small workshop has grown into a trusted source for handmade caskets. Over the years, we’ve built hundreds of caskets for families, funeral homes, pets, and even special projects for TV, film, and stage productions. Every piece reflects our commitment to quality, dignity, and value.
