Vinterek by Johan Carpner for Svenskt Tenn



This wonderful textile from Svenskt Tenn (designed by Johan Carpner) is made of cotton/linen material and measures 150 x 175cm giving the feeling that the tree is growing endlessly (and as one piece of fabric seamlessly fit into the next the tree can continue growing as high as you'd wish it to).

I just absolutely love it! Especially as it's reminiscent of the wonderful tree growing outside our bedroom window and balcony.
(Even more so now in winter times -- for those who don't speak Swedish vinterek means Winter Oak).
