Hungarian Merry Makers Ornaments – JO001

Description

Comes with two ornaments!

Hungarian herdsman art was one of the inspirations for the style of the folk art of Peter Hunt. The beautiful embroideries and leather appliqued garments certainly spark our imagination.

Another wonderful outlet for our creative journey, each ornament is done out of mdf and laser cut with intricate detail.  The patterns are etched on the surface for ease of painting.If you prefer to not use the etching, it can be painted over with Gesso or Texture paste and then the pattern can be applied – as you prefer.
