Himmeli are decorations that are believed to bring health and happiness to the family. I make each one with care. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The hemp leaf pattern is said to represent a wish for the healthy growth of children, and also to ward off evil. So, this Himmeli was made with the image of a protective charm. The tassels and the upper string use a slightly thicker thread with gold thread in it. Himmeli are hung with gratitude and wishes. The color changes slightly over time, so I hope you enjoy it. Size: Length 29cm (including tassel) Width 13cm (Himmeli part) (Hanging string approx. 50cm) #Himmeli currently on sale here * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
