Swedish dishcloth: Lucia Cat

39,00 kr

The name “Lussekatt” (=”Lucia Cat”) refers to a Swedish traditional saffron bun served for the Lucia celebration each year on the 13th of December. Lucia appears on the doorstep wearing a white long dress and a crown/wreath on her head of lingonberry leaves carrying a circle of lit candles. She comes to remind us of the light, the kindness and warmth we should be open to both give and receive. This Lucia Cat is a happy “mix-interpretation” of the bun and the Lucia. And of course it’s a white fur cat 🙂 . Bringing light and joy to the kitchen aswell as a Scandinavian xmas ambience.
