Bull Ornament

Né Nepal was founded by Tulja and Ishu in 2018 out of a shared love for Nepalese art, craft, and culture, and a desire to see the incredible work of Nepalese artisans valued on a global stage. They started by working with makers they already knew through their families and communities, building long-term relationships around the idea that handcraft should be treated as skilled, valuable work. These ornaments are made in Kathmandu by a team of 15 women and 4 men who have been practicing felt-making for more than 15 years. Each piece is shaped, rolled, and detailed by hand, turning wool, water, soap, and a whole lot of patience into the tiny Tiger, Bull, Mango, and Chilli you see here. We love the little variations that come with that process, they’re a reminder that these aren’t factory-made decorations, but pieces made by real hands.
