Forest animals felt

These felted animal figures are excellent for familiarizing children with its inhabitants outside the forest. Fox and owl, hare and hedgehog, and last but not least the deer as the lord of the forest highlight one or two essential features in their puristic (and admittedly extremely appealing) design - and that is quite enough to introduce children to the different "characters". Best complemented by excursions into their natural environment with the animals made of pure new wool in the hand - or even in the form of a mobile above the crib, as a window decoration or to expand the animal population around the craft house.

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.
