Probably not, although there have been many rumours that Frank Lloyd Wright designed three caskets. The most persistent rumor is that the "Marquet" casket originally produced by the former Clarksburg Casket Company was designed by him. The "Marquet" (a misspelling of Marquette) is a moderately modernistic looking solid mahogany casket with inlays and integrated handles; it comes with a velvet interior. After Clarksburg was bought by the Aurora Casket Company in 2000, the new owner moved the hardwood factory from West Virginia to Tennessee, but kept the "Marquet" design in production. Even if it has not been designed by FLW, one surely say that the beautiful (and expensive) "Marquet" casket represents a furniture style which certainly could have been designed by the famous Frank Lloyd Wright.
