Ebay find: Danish Wool “Waterbearer” AKA Merman!
Sometimes when you deprive yourself from eBay for a really long time your judgment takes a lapse. Fortunately this wall hanging turned out to be pretty cool, plus it was only 9 bucks! I think it was the description that got me:
“Vintage DANISH Modern DENMARK WOOL Wall HANGING Eames”
Because sometimes you just need to throw out a designers name in there.
This is a self portrait of me with a beard, fish tail, and trident.
“The Waterbearer” which will help out with the crop next year.
The colours are quite similar to our Berber rug, but I have a feeling this will probably make it’s home at the cottage.
Just some more wooly goodness.
I love the teak accent. I have a close connection with this hanging that Juli doesn’t know about. I actually came across the exact same wall hanging at a store in Helsinki. We were at capacity and I couldn’t justify the purchase, but I felt that me and Merman would be reunited again someday….
Well it turns out that was yesterday, and we are very happy regardless of our unconventional relationship.
