Felt pendant house

Some good things dispense with any detour and hit directly into the spring-tuned heart. That's about what happened to us with these hand-felted pendants. If you have ever dreamed of a cottage in the green, over which trees protectively bend, on which roses climb, to which the grasses gently nestle, then you will find in these pendants an image of your idyll. Even if you prefer to carry the lights of the big city in your heart - hardly anyone can escape the spring magic of these pendants.

However and wherever you celebrate spring and include it in your interior decoration, these little houses made of pure New Zealand, animal-friendly wool add another feast for the eyes to your room decoration. Carefully embroidered by hand in rich detail, each side of the house depicts a different graceful scene. Each little house is a small, lovingly designed unique piece that tells every year again about spring - in the decorative branches, on the set Sunday table or the small gift.

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.
