Hardangerbunad

Hardangerbunad is a collective term for bunads from the villages in the traditional district of Hardanger, Norway, with various local varieties.

The bunad includes the areas Kvam, Granvin, Ulvik, Eidfjord, Jondal, Ullensvang and Odda.

Over large parts of the bunad, including the belt and apron, there is embroidery in the local style.

The colored aprons are, for example, in cotton, wool, linen or silk, with patterns depending on local tradition.
