embroideries! |
The artist, Ulf Lundeby lived in Lillehammer when he made this bunad for a friend on her 50th birthday in 1932. Lundeby was born in Solør in Hedmark, and because of that, many people from that district feel they can use this as a costume from that area. The bunad is also very common in Oppland county. The costume is not yet certified as a bunad, but will hopefully be in a few years.
