Snowman felt

"In the meadow we can build a snowman", sang Ella Fitzgerald the "Winter Wonderland" (whose version, by the way, we think is the most beautiful, but that's just by the way, and you're welcome to object, at least in this case). So that you do not have to wait for the snow to glisten in the streets, we give you - for decorative purposes or even as a good luck charm - this hand-felted snowman made of pure New Zealand virgin wool. So you won't have to worry about him melting the next time the heat hits, and you can happily sing along with Ella (or yes, even Dean Martin or Macy Gray or the Cocteau Twins or the myriad other performers* of this song) humming along: "In the meadow we can build a snowman / And pretend that he's a circus clown / We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman ..."

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.
