Kviteseid is a beautiful detailed jacket inspired by Norwegian rosemaling (literally “rose painting”). Rosemaling is an ornamental decorative painting style deeply rooted in Norwegian folk art, known for its powerful yet refined use of colors. Our Kviteseid jacket is a beautiful and toned-down interpretation of the rosemaling style.
The Kviteseid jacket is made of 100% fine Norwegian wool. By selecting the finest wool from the sheep’s very first shearing, the fibers are short, giving us a finer and softer yarn. The outcome is thin, light and soft garments, while maintaining the brilliance, crimp and longevity for which Norwegian wool is world renowned. For extra comfort, the neck is lined with soft merino wool.
