Some models even had viewing windows, allowing families to see the deceased without opening the case. Originally marketed during cholera outbreaks to prevent contami

Step inside a Victorian-era funeral setup 🕯️⚰️ featuring rare Fisk Company metal caskets (including an 1847 model that weighed around 300 lbs and cost $100 when most coffins were about $2).

19th Century Metal Casket Steel caskets first appeared in the late 1840s, when Dr. Almond Fisk received a U.S. patent for a cast-iron casket that he claimed was airtight and indestructible. The bronze-finished “metallic burial case” featured a lid made from a sheet of glass, which allowed mourners to view the deceased. #metalcasket #opengrave #forgottengrave | History Seekers
