NOTE: Our refurbished Flowergirls are carved and painted entirely by hand in Norway. Sometimes the voyage across the Atlantic is too rough, and they arrive at our shop with broken hands and candleholders, or missing metal wax cups. We carefully repair them, using craft-grade wood glue. We offer the refurbished option at a deeply discounted price, hoping they also find good homes. These items are final sale only, and cannot be returned.

Housed in a three-hundred-year-old timber home in the snow-covered hills of Norse countryside, the shop of Henning carries on the Norwegian tradition of woodcarving.

Henning Engelsen began carving in 1947, initially inspired by the wildlife and folktales of old Norway. Not long after, he opened his shop, and called the wood-carving company “Henning.” It has been said that his dream was to create a world of wood-carved figures that radiate joy and humanity and inspire us to rise above the ordinary. His two daughters have carried on their father’s woodcarving tradition, carving the same figures their father did, having learned by carving at his side in their childhood and youth.
