Lucia − the bearer of light. Alongside Midsummer, the Lucia celebrations represent one of the foremost cultural traditions in Sweden, with a clear reference to life in the peasant communities of old: darkness, light, cold & warmth. Lucia is an ancient mythical figure with an abiding role as a bearer of light in the dark Swedish winters. And it’s always celebrated on December 13.
A handmade Rug Collection at Swedish Granit. This rug collection is hand-knotted. A handmade rug is an investment in long traditions, craftsmanship with a long lifetime. 100% wool, 100% recycled PET or 100% jute. The PET rugs are also woven in two colours, which makes them reversible.
Simply beautiful 👏👏👏

We have saved all Christmas ornaments since our boys were small & they want the same ones every year in the Christmas tree. At least to keep the colours in red & green with some gold accents.
Surely, one can claim that traditions from childhood has a tremendous influence on us.
