Classic furniture by K.A. Roos in Helsingborg

K.A. Roos at Kulla Gunnarstorp in Helsingborg has made unique classic Swedish furniture already for 50 years. This is how the family company, which counts Scandinavian Royal Families as its customers, describe their products:

"As one would expect there is a high degree of handwork involved in the making of a K.A. Roos original. All the products are manufactured in Scandinavia by craftsmen who continue to preserve the tradition of Scandinavian furniture making. Each piece of furniture is individually made, using old fashioned techniques. Cabinets are put together through dovetail joint. You have only to pull out a drawer to appreciate the authentic irregularity of the dovetailing used in its construction. When K.A. Roos talk about “handmade” we mean it in the old-fashioned sense of word.

We are proud to still be hand-making in Scandinavia using a workforce that is a mix between experience and youthful enthusiasm. We love the fact that we are keeping these traditional handcrafting skills alive in an age of mass production and uniformity.But most of all we are proud of the quality of workmanship and beauty of finish that we can achieve with our workforce."

A nice little Pomeranian

Today I met this nice little Pomeranian in Hittarp:

Here is some info on the breed:
The Pomeranian (often known as a Pom or Pom Pom) is a breed of dog of the Spitz type that is named for the Pomerania region in Poland Central Europe. Classed as a toy dog breed because of its small size, the Pomeranian is descended from the larger Spitz type dogs, specifically the German Spitz. It has been determined by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale to be part of the German Spitz breed; and in many countries, they are known as the Zwergspitz ("Dwarf-Spitz").
The breed has been made popular by a number of royal owners since the 18th century. Queen Victoria owned a particularly small Pomeranian and consequently the smaller variety became universally popular. During Queen Victoria's lifetime alone, the size of the breed decreased by 50%. Overall, the Pomeranian is a sturdy, healthy dog. (Wiki)
