Goth Gear For the Home - Coffin Couches (GALLERY)

They’re a little bit creepy, but full-blown cool at the same time. The self proclaimed environmentalist designers at CoffinCouches.com are pimping out certified pre-owned (but never buried) caskets and turning them into furniture. The southern California company collects the somewhat blemished caskets from area funeral homes, retrofits them, and resells them as couches. State law prohibits the resale of coffins for their intended use, but nothing states they can’t become conversation pieces for the home.

The couches are supported by six cast iron legs each emblazoned with biohazard symbols - probably for legal purposes. Once human remains have come in contact with the coffin, it is considered a biohazardous item. Their website states the logos are placed there “for precautionary reasons in the event body fluids are exchanged on these coffins.”

The designs are pretty sweet. There’s the glossy blue LA Dodgers couch, the pony hair Cowhide couch, and several other color combinations in addition to taking special orders. Couches start at $4,500 plus shipping.
