What do you mean by green coffin?

The green coffin symbolizes the end of life and a new beginning.

It is a funeral tradition to be covered by a green coffin, expressing condolences and blessings to the deceased relatives. In the traditional culture of China, green symbolizes the end of life and a new beginning, and represents hope and rebirth. Therefore, covering the funeral with green cloth or green plants is to hope that the deceased can rest in peace and bring hope and comfort to the living. In addition, in addition to green cloth, you can also use other items to express your memory and condolences to the deceased, such as flowers, photos, souvenirs and so on.

In the traditional concept, death is regarded as "going home", which means that people return to the state before birth. Green coffins are more about providing a peaceful and comfortable "homecoming" environment for the deceased than expressing some meaning or symbol.
