The Oat Shroud

Simple. Honest. Unadorned.

The Oat Shroud celebrates the quiet beauty of natural hemp in its purest form. Made from heavyweight greige hemp—left in its natural, undyed state—it honours the character of the fibre itself, with its warm oat colour, subtle texture, and timeless simplicity.

Finished with generous white hemp ties rather than silk, this design offers a more understated aesthetic while remaining soft, elegant, and entirely biodegradable. It is an ideal choice for those drawn to natural materials and uncomplicated beauty.

As part of Sanctum's Origine Collection, no dyes or pigments are used. The colours you see are simply those of the earth-grown fibres themselves.

Each shroud includes a coordinating bamboo/cotton absorbent liner and is lightly infused with Sanctum's signature botanical essence—a subtle blend of grounding woods and gentle florals designed to create a peaceful sensory experience.
