Rogalandsbunad from Jelsa in Ryfylke
Tone has sent me some great pictures of herself and her bunad from Rogaland. You can visit Tone on her own homepage.
Nordaker Bunader AS gives a small history of the bunads from Rogaland. It gives also some pictures, both of the Jelsa, but also, the other regions patterns and specialities on the embroideries.
Tone has made the bunad herself, what a wonderful job she did! Click on the images to see larger pictures.
