5 reasons you'll love this Burial Shroud:
1. Easy To Use
Our Burial Shrouds have six, durable cotton handles with an unbleached canvas sleeve to hold a wooden plank, providing full-body support. A three-step instruction sheet is also included for easy, stress-free transport.
2. Sustainable Fibres
Woven in a striking variation of a herringbone twill weave, this fabric is naturally grown and organic. Known as Foxfibre, this innovative yarn has been developed over 40 years by Sally Fox.
3. Fully Biodegradable
Accented with natural linen trim and ties, and sewn with cotton thread, even the smallest details of our Burial Shrouds are 100% biodegradable.
4. Zero Waste. Zero Chemicals.
We embrace earth-friendly design practices in the design and construction of our burial shrouds. No material is wasted and our fabrics are free from artificial dyes.
5. Handcrafted with Care
Each burial shroud is lovingly made at our Nova Scotia-based LaHave Weaving Studio by Lesley Armstrong, a master weaver with over 50 years of experience.
