Glitter Tree

Glitter Tree is made from vintage kantha blanket leftovers and is adorned with small ornaments, including Evil Eye pearls and shiny rosettes. This tree is beautifully decorated with sparkling golden and silver lurex along the edges. Thanks to its three-dimensional shape, the ornament can be placed at the table without support. On top of the tree, a cute silver moon is decorated by hand with golden sequins. This ornament is perfect for spreading the Christmas spirit within the home! The kantha used for this ornament in color green will vary from item to item.

Year after year you can decorate your home with this Christmas decoration. The kantha used for this item is kantha cuttings that are left over from production of the upcycled kantha blanket garments in our collections. The kantha embroidery technique, creatively upcycles old cotton saris, that previously have been worn by Indian women, giving them new life as upcycled items. This technique is characterized by the many rows of short, continuous stitches – a method that has been used in India for hundreds of years and especially common among women in the countryside. As part of our values, we cherish the idea of upcycling and using existing leftover fabrics. Due to the nature of kantha, you may find different colors on the back of the item, additional fabric patches, smaller imperfections such as small stains and spots or extra stitching that adds to its unique charm.

SISSEL EDELBO wishes you a Merry Christmas!
