Gross as it may seem to most, recycling a coffin and turning it into a couch where you can sit on does offers some eco-friendly initiatives. CoffinCouches offers the Autum Heretic couches which were handmade in the USA, a neat creation that one would never think of being something that the dead used prior to burials.

The Heretic couch is made from an 18-gauge steel coffin with four cast-iron legs unlike the six-legged coffin couch, hand-stitched Italian leather, and in an attempt to make them unique, there is a laser-engraved ID plaque on the side of the couch to certify authenticity.
