Metka Prezelj o. d. d.

Metka enjoys dry felting. She says this is something for her soul and a relaxation after a hard day at
work. She found the idea for her product in the natural and cultural heritage of Idrija and in her childhood memories of her grandmother telling her stories about this fairy-tale creature, the mine elf Perkmandlc who has been rousing her imagination ever since.

The IDRIJA SELECTED certificate of excellence is awarded to products and services that meet high standards of quality, include locally produced raw materials and tell the story of tradition, culture and the lifestyle of the people living in the Idrija UNESCO Global Geopark.
