Item Description
The Sons of Norway 2010 Hallingdal Rose Christmas ornament is decorated in a style found on several trunks and cupboards from some of the earliest rosemaling in Norway and is unique in both focus and technique. It uses flowers as their main focus with scrolls added to complete a design, opposite from Telemark where the scrolls are the main design element and flowers fill in the spaces.
It also exhibits strong colors using rich shades of yellow, green, blue and red, which are “pulled out” from the center color ending in white, giving a two-tone, shaded effect. Background colors include orange red, rust red, black-blue, black- green and black. Medium and light blue backgrounds are popular in the United States because people enjoy it for decorating purposes.
This commemorative, limited edition ornament from Sons of Norway was designed by Vesterheim Gold medal winning rosemaler, Shirley Evenstad. It is no longer available to the public, so the winning bidder will receive a truly unique gift item.
