PRODUCT OF THE MONTH
Hardanger Embroidery
The exact origins of Hardanger embroidery are not known but
it is thought to have its beginnings in ancient Persia and Asia. In the period
between 1650-1850 Hardangersom (meaning: work from Hardanger area) flourished in
Norway. Flax was grown, carded, spun and woven into white fabric and thread
which was used to make and decorate traditional Norwegian costume items called
bunads (long aprons) as well as other items of clothing and household linens
such as mats, curtains and bedspreads. This information has
been taken from Wikipedia.
