What are the detailed dimensions of the coffin?

Generally, the inner diameter of a coffin is 57 cm wide at the front bottom, 42 cm wide at the top, 60 cm high, 35 cm wide at the back bottom, 30 cm wide at the top and 35 cm high. Bottom mouth length1.75m. The upper mouth is1.85m long. The coffin is the same regardless of its size, inner diameter and width.

As the old saying goes, a bed can't be separated from seven, a coffin can't be separated from eight and a table can't be separated from nine, so the size of an ancient coffin is about eight feet. According to folk rumors, the word coffin is homophonic with that of an official, and the size of eight coffins means "fat", so the ancients defined the coffin size as eight feet, in order to let the dead ancestors bless future generations for promotion and wealth. This statement has continued until now.

Color selection of coffin:

The colors of coffins are red, gold, yellow and white.

1. Red coffins are usually used for funerals and funerals after the death of people over 80 years old. The reason why red is used represents good luck, and the old man dies without illness and disaster, which means a good end.

2. The yellow coffin is also called the log color coffin. If there are still elderly people in the deceased's home, they should choose a yellow coffin, which means to bless the health and longevity of the elderly.

White coffins are rarely used now. It is said that in the past, unmarried young women or unmarried young men used white coffins after their death.

The golden coffin is exclusive to the ancient royal family, symbolizing the supreme imperial power and dignity.
