When interior material is tightly stretched across the panel of the casket, this finish is described as what?

• A. Tightened
• B. Lined
• C. Padded
• D. Tailored

Answer: (D)

When fabric is pulled tight and fitted cleanly over the panel, the look is described as a tailored finish. This term conveys a neat, precise surface where the material is stretched taut and secured to create clean edges and a smooth, formal appearance, much like tailored clothing.

Padded would imply added cushioning and a softer, cushioned surface; lined refers to fabric forming a basic lining without the emphasis on a tight fit; tightened describes the action of pulling the fabric taut but isn’t the standard finish name.
