    General Information

    In splendor

    What is the greenfinch doing in the Christmas tree? He won't beat it, that much is certain (a pity in itself, because the trilling, twittering call of the greenfinch can be heard). At least the greenfinch is in very good company, because the bird in the Christmas decorations has tradition. The dove as a messenger of peace, the owl as a bird of wisdom, the peacock as a symbol of eternal life and not to forget the robin as a holy bird - they all like to cavort in the branches of the Christmas decorated fir tree.

    On top of that, these greenfinches appearing in their splendor dress are felted by hand from pure New Zealand virgin wool and therefore more durable than the fluttery fellows in your garden. So they can settle handsomely in your room, tree and table decorations and especially to the robin form a decorative contrast - not only at Christmas time, but throughout the year, from spring greetings to Easter bouquets to autumn decorations and Barbara branches.

    A Fair Collaboration. Gry & Sif

    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.

    Hint:

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