The Story Behind the Art:
The first step to creating these beautiful felt pieces begins with gathering some of the world’s finest sheep’s wool from New Zealand. Making felted wool is an ages-old， time-consuming process of bonding fabric with fiber. This is a physical job where the artisan’s scrub， rub， roll and rinse the wool again and again with soapy water.
Once the wool is bound into a sheet and the desired thickness is complete， the felt is laid out to dry. From there， the felt wool is cut and re-worked into many complex shapes and designs. The many sheets of wool might merge several colors to create patterns and layers. This takes a well-trained， talented artisan and is a true labor of love. The end results are colorful， one-of-a-kind textiles that are stunning to behold.
