не просто одежда
Случайно наткнулась на дизайнерскую шерстяную одежду из Исландии в духе тотемов. Кое-какие вещи показались мне ужасно милыми (и скорее всего они реально теплые, раз из шерсти^^) Некоторые описания весьма любопытны, но они на инглише, а мне лень переводить, так что прошу меня извинить













In the Icelandic myths, seals are believed to be condemned by humans. One ancient story from the south of Iceland is about a farmet who early one morning finds a sealpelt lying on the beach. In a cave nearby, he hears vioces and music. He takes the sealpelt home and hides it in a woodenchest. Few days later he returns to the beach and finds a crying, naked, young woman sitting on a rock. He brings her to his house where she stays, but he never tells her about the pelt. As time goes by they get married and have children. But the young woman is restless and often stares quietly out of the window at the ocean. One day when the farmer goes fishing, his wife accidentally finds the key of the chest, opens it and discovers the missing pelt. She takes leave of her children, puts the pelt on and before she dives into the ocean she says: “ I am vary anxious, with seven children on land an seven in the sea.” She never comes back but the farmer misses her terribly. Later when he goes fishing there often is a seal near his boat and its eyes are filled with tears. It is said that the farmer becomes a very lucky fisherman. And when his children play at the beach there often is a seal swimming close to land. Sometimes it brings them beautiful stones and colorful fishes. But their mother never returned.



Вот именно эти штуки под морских котиков меня и покорили. Особенно умилительна детская версия Но честно говоря, я бы сама от такой не отказалась. Приходишь домой с работы весь такой злой, замерзший, усталый. Одеваешь на себя "шкурку морского кота", наливаешь какао в любимую кружку и такой: "Я морской котик. Я не хочу ничего решать. Я хочу валяться!" Мимими короче!

HIDDEN WORLD | DULARHJÚPUR

There is a world that most of us cannot visit; some believe in and others sense, but it is beyond our reach. There are only a few people who can communicate with this world and those who do function as bridges between the natural and spiritual world for the benefit of the community. This blanket is a dedication to those magical people and is meant to create space in the everyday life to connect with the hidden world.

THE HEALING HANDS / VERNDARHENDUR

The Healing Hands scarves are inspired by Alaskan Shaman. The Shaman use healing hands to cure sick people and to clean out evil spirits. Vík Prjónsdóttir´s Healing Hands are dedicated to the powers of the Shaman and are meant to give warmth and protection to the wearer.

SHIELD OF WINGS | VERNDARVÆNGURINN

The Sea Eagle is the king of birds. With its grace and beauty, and a wingspan of up to two and a half meters, it is respected and feared at the same time. The eagle does everything for its young and protects its nest with great care and strength. It is a predator that has been known to even take infant children to its nest - still in Iceland lives one survivor of the eagle’s claws. This blanket is a dedication to that magnificent animal. Now you are under the eagle’s protection.
