Farm animals felt

Friendly, even mischievous here with horse, cow, pig, goat and sheep the classic farm animals present themselves. Who does not know a farm nearby, finds in these hand-felted figures charming illustrative objects that children first plastic impressions of the animal world of a farm.

For who has not heard the wild rumors that are rampant, especially about city children: Allegedly, for example, a large part of our offspring believes that cows are purple and give UHT milk. This is certainly an exaggeration, but nevertheless an initial in-depth look at naturally designed animal figures and an accompanying conversation about their special characteristics is a good idea. And with these farm animals, not only the horse and sheep invite you to touch and stroke, the goat, pig and cow are also made of pure New Zealand wool and thus have a long life ahead of them.

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.

This product is an example of genuine handicraft; therefore, minor deviations in size and colour may occur.
