Christmas tree topper Christmas angel felt

Even if this Christmas angel won't be singing a festive song from your Christmas tree, it still offers a graceful way to "take your Christmas decorations to the extreme". Hand-felted from pure New Zealand wool, the angel has a cone-shaped cavity inside so that you can place it on the top of your Christmas tree. With his gentle smile, he can also proclaim the good news far away from your tree decoration: His angelic robe is so expansive and stable that he can also be used as an upright Christmas messenger to add the icing on the cake to your windowsill, dresser or festive table.

During her backpacking tour through Nepal, the Dane Gry Staunstrup got to know the astonishing openness and warmth of the country’s inhabitants, and their craftsmanship bedazzled her. She was able to observe in detail how adeptly and skilfully Nepalese women felted wool into a wide variety of objects. Staunstrup felt it was time to make something good out of the untapped potential, and an idea was born: to combine Nepalese handicrafts with Danish design. And the idea was immediately followed by action.

The company Gry & Sif started producing a variety of products made of wool felt in Nepal in 2000. The designs created by Gry Staunstrup are as remarkable as they are understated and, characteristic of Danish design, at the same time fresh and merry. Nepalese women turn them into products employing traditional handicrafts. Fair Trade certified by now, Gry & Sif stands for fair wages and working conditions, environmentally conscious production and transparency. The company exclusively sources pure new wool from New Zealand sheep for the felting; each of the resulting products is handmade and unique.
