Made to Order! A handwoven Scandinavian belt for a woman's folk costume of Norway, Sweden, or Finland. Woven in a traditional Norwegian practice with a heddle and shuttle from scratch. In the pattern is a traditional X and O shape, found in Saami, Swedish and Norwegian cultures. These decorative belts are widespread across the Baltic States, Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean Countries, Scandinavia and Fennoscandia.

Last year I began reading the blog, Folklore Fashion, it was brim full of breathtaking photography of Scandinavian folk costumes antiques and reproductions. Having never really studied much about this type of costume - I was quite intrigued. Some of the techniques I recognize (the gauging on the skirts, for instance) from 1860s sewing, but as for the stunning color, fabric, and embroidery combinations - I think they are just fascinating! It's amazing how all the different regions have their own distinct folk costume! They are so varied and each just gorgeous....looks like the stuff of fairytales.... These images are from the new book Scandinavian Folklore, which I plan on adding to my research collection as soon as I can budget it in! :) Looks like a beautiful resource book!
