1. Oak bark.
Nature´s greys are rarely grey.
They can be yellow-toned, touched by the sun, or shadow-veiled with blue melancholy or flushed pink by a sunset cloud.
And palettes with grey can be mysterious and rich, whether destined for loom shuttle or paintbrush.
“And how important it is to know how to mix on the palette those colours which have no name
and yet are the real foundation of everything”
– Vincent van Gogh
The creak of the wood, the rush of the shuttle, and the clip of heavy, old iron scissors as they trim the ends of the yarns.
The song of the loom is repeated over and over, as the woven fabric slowly builds up, row by row.
The weaver´s expert hands and feet power the loom in a meditative state of concentration, the perfect union of person and handloom.
Only after the shuttle has been thrown by the weaver over 2000 times is the song finished.
And another one of our scarves, handwoven to perfection.
