Toadstools felt

In the wild, mushrooms form a happy symbiotic relationship with trees. In the arrangement of your autumn branches or Sunday table, these toadstools not only add decorative splashes of color, but are extremely handsome lucky charms to boot - that's not a promise of happiness, but at least a happy view (or view).

And so that the lucky charm does not turn out unawares as a poisonous mushroom, these toadstools are felted entirely free of toxins by hand from pure New Zealand virgin wool - so they are also far more durable than real toadstools and can provide you all autumn times again happy views and views.

During her backpacking tour through Nepal, the Dane Gry Staunstrup got to know the astonishing openness and warmth of the country’s inhabitants, and their craftsmanship bedazzled her. She was able to observe in detail how adeptly and skilfully Nepalese women felted wool into a wide variety of objects. Staunstrup felt it was time to make something good out of the untapped potential, and an idea was born: to combine Nepalese handicrafts with Danish design. And the idea was immediately followed by action.

The company Gry & Sif started producing a variety of products made of wool felt in Nepal in 2000. The designs created by Gry Staunstrup are as remarkable as they are understated and, characteristic of Danish design, at the same time fresh and merry. Nepalese women turn them into products employing traditional handicrafts. Fair Trade certified by now, Gry & Sif stands for fair wages and working conditions, environmentally conscious production and transparency. The company exclusively sources pure new wool from New Zealand sheep for the felting; each of the resulting products is handmade and unique.

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