Mobile felt

Felted from pure New Zealand virgin wool, these mobiles not only entertain babies and toddlers, but also support them in their physical and cognitive development - in a completely natural way. Because with its colorful balls and figures that move gently back and forth, the mobile hung above the crib or changing table inevitably attracts the child's attention. In this way, the child learns to fix its gaze and distinguish between colors and shapes. The eye, in particular, demands activity: From the day it is born, a baby's sense of sight develops rapidly; after just four weeks, the range of the child's "keen eye" has expanded from around 30 centimeters to about one meter. At the same time, the visual stimulus promotes the urge to move: the child reaches for the moving object it sees, pedals in its direction and thus involuntarily trains its motor skills. Therefore, you should hang the mobile out of reach of the child - fascination knows no bounds.

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.
