A Sacred Wings shroud is a burial cloth made to wrap the body in place of a coffin. It offers a biodegradable and personal option for green and traditional burials and cremations, chosen by those who want closeness, softness and connection to the earth.
Shrouds can be laid on a willow carrier or wooden board or placed inside a simple coffin . When rested on a willow stretcher, the body appears gently cradled, echoing a return to something natural and held. There is no legal requirement in the UK to use a coffin.
Soft covers suitable for natural and traditional burials and cremations.
Suitable for both natural and traditional burials, as well as cremations. The body is gently wrapped in a plain white shroud made from pure linen, beneath the soft cover.
Please note that willow stretchers or carriers — such as those made by Woven Farewell are available at an additional cost. Prices for these start from £150.
