CREATORS

* Leksands Hemslöjdsforening (Swedish, est. 1904)  - designer
This regional handicrafts association was established in the Dalarana municipality Leksand in 1904. The organization largely produced textiles and ceramics based on the region’s folkloric art style.
* Jobs Handtryck (Swedish, est. 1944)  - manufacturer
Established by Peer Jobs (1913-1989) in 1944, this Dalarna-based textile press specialized in manufacturing designs by Peer’s sisters Lisbet Jobs (1909-1961) and Ingrid “Gocken” Jobs (1914-1995). The press also collaborated with Leksand’s Handicrafts Association (Leksands Hemsljödsforening). As of 2019, the press operates out of Västanvik, Sweden.
