Shrouds
A shroud is a piece of fabric to wrap or swaddle your loved one in. Shrouds are normally made with natural materials, therefore a more earth friendly option. Can be used with or without a coffin for burial or cremation, dependent on the requirements of your local burial/cremation grounds.
Shrouds have been traced back to the 1350s in France, this practice was used by our ancestors. It invites a gentle attending that allows one to be fully present with the presence of death.
Flowers, crystals, messages, and loved ones keepsakes can be gently placed for their onward journey.
We would love to invite you in and weave your own, or one for your person.
