Insights
Handmade by artisans in Nepal from paper as a Fair Trade product. Paper chains or garlands have been used to decorate British homes since 1850s, a Victorian fashion likely appropriated from the Germans. Draped across the walls, they were fixed using drawing pins into the picture rails, at a height where any holes could not be seen.
