Nina specialises in in crafting exquisite, one-of-a-kind home and wearable products made from 100% wool. Every item is meticulously handcrafted from start to finish in her studio in Strandhill, Co. Sligo, Ireland.
She takes great pride in sourcing only limited quantities of premium wool, ensuring that each piece is of the highest quality. Her approach prioritizes sustainability and uniqueness, guaranteeing that every creation is as individual as the person who will wear or use it.
By combining the heritage of the Tyrolean Alps with the natural beauty of the Atlantic coastline, she has developed a stunning collection that blends traditional craftsmanship with a modern sensibility. These timeless pieces reflect both the warmth of the past and the beauty of the nature that inspires them.
Each of her pieces is crafted with attention to detail, quality, and care. From the initial design to the final stitch, she pour my heart into every creation. She believes in the power of handmade – not just as a technique, but as a way of life that honours the past, respects nature, and provides something truly special for those who appreciate it.
She was born and raised in Westendorf. On a holiday in Ireland in 2008 she fell in love, and not only with the breath taking beauty of the Atlantic Ocean.
In 2015, she embarked on a self-taught apprenticeship in sewing and free-motion embroidery, drawing inspiration from both the Austrian Alps and the Irish Atlantic Ocean.
