SPUN COTTON ORNAMENTS
Filasophie’s one of a kind cotton batting ornaments bring back the glamour of past times.
They are based on a technique which was used in Germany around the turn of the century in 1900 to create whimsical Christmas ornaments.
If you are looking for an outstanding home decor accessory or a true piece of traditional craftsmanship, you will love it!
The ornament is entirely made by hand and with great attention to detail. Several steps are necessary to create each character with love & soul.
It all starts with an idea translated into a wire frame which will be neatly wrapped with cotton until a new character reveals.
After the drying process, the white figurine is ready for the fun part: adding colour and embellishments - carefully collected and stored for "that special one"...
