This is a picture of a Malaysia’s Chinese coffin which influenced by Egyptian culture. This is related to Egyptian’s belief in afterlife, Chinese afterlife theory are similar to Egyptian and both of them are believe the deceased will be reborn after a period of time, so they use coffin to protect the dead body. But the coffin of Egyptian and Chinese is quite different, because majority of Chinese coffin was using red and gold to design. Chinese use red and gold color to design the coffin because the red and gold color is a symbol of fortune for Chinese. They hope the people who passed away will get a better life in their afterlife so they use the fortunate color to design the coffin.
