Door wreath wool with felt bow

Why felt when you can do it airy? The special thing about this wreath, made from New Zealand virgin wool, is the way it is made: Virgin wool threads are drawn by hand around the virgin wool-wrapped wreath - thick and short enough to maintain the (wreath) shape, yet long enough to create that handsome look of plush. The red felt bow is also created purely by hand and provides a festive contrast to the green of the wreath.

Whether attached to the front door, hung in the Christmas-lit window or placed on the wall: Even in solo appearance, the Scandinavian design with its clear design language and color scheme looks very striking. Of course, you can just as well decorate the wreath individually, with small Christmas balls or an ice glass orphan. And even after Christmas, this woolen wreath makes a handsome messenger of winter, if you equip it with winter berries, for example. Because wreaths are versatile and probably as old as human heads and dwellings. The ancient Germanic tribes, for example, used door wreaths to ward off disaster, the Greeks and Romans placed laurel wreaths on the heads of their elect, and Polynesians still greet visitors with wreaths of flowers around their necks as a sign of hospitality. The door wreaths of our modern homes with their circular shape announce the constant return of the seasons, which are revealed in the respective wreath decoration.

During her backpacking trip through Nepal, the Dane Gry Staunstrup was immediately captivated by the openness and warmth of the people - and by their craftsmanship. She was able to observe in detail how skillfully and skilfully Nepalese women felted wool into Objekten. The idea of using this skill and combining Nepalese craftsmanship with Danish design was quickly born. And the idea was immediately followed by action.

Since 2000, the company Gry & Sif has been producing a wide range of products from wool felt in Nepal. The designs supplied by Gry Staunstrup are in typical Danish design, as striking as they are discreet and at the same time carefree and cheerful; the production is carried out by Nepalese women using traditional craftsmanship. Now Fair Trade certified, Gry & Sif stands for fair wages, good working conditions and transparency. Only pure new wool from New Zealand sheep is used for the felt products - each of which is unique and handmade.
