Turtle doves felt

Turtle doves are regarded as heralds of happiness, they stand in for great love while cooing and Picasso immortalized them definitively as a symbol of peace. Thus, for human lovebirds and all friends and relatives, they are emblematic part of the Valentine's greeting, engagement gift or wedding bouquet. Equally decorative they make themselves in the Christmas tree or on the table decorated for the feast of love and announce there, felted from pure new wool, hopeful every year again "peace".

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.
