The decision to create the costume was made two years ago, on Rannveig's 270th anniversary. The costume, which has been recreated from descriptions in Rannveig's estate papers, will be on permanent display at the S\u00edvertsen House.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Annr\u00edki \u2013 National Costumes and Jewellery has spent the last two years working on the sewing of Madam Rannveig S\u00edvertsen's costume. Madame Rannveig was the wife of Bjarni Knight S\u00edvertsen, a major shipowner in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. Annr\u00edki received a grant from the Cultural and Tourist Committee of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur to promote and launch the project almost two years ago. \u00a0Over the past two years, the project has been joined by ten individuals to assist with research and sewing, as it is a complex undertaking that is fundamentally based on the history and descriptions from Rannveig's estate. All of these individuals donated their work to the project, and this represents an invaluable contribution to the preservation of the historical heritage of the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. The owners are the couple \u00c1smundur Kristj\u00e1nsson, a machinist and goldsmith, and Gu\u00f0r\u00fan Hildur Rosenkj\u00e6r, a tailor and dressmaker, who run the company Annr\u00edki \u2013 National Costumes and Jewellery. The company specialises in everything related to the Icelandic national costume. The sewing of the undergarment for Madam Rannveig is one of the couple's ambitious pet projects. The undergarment is now complete and was formally presented today to the Mayor of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, Harald L. Haraldsson.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201eOn behalf of the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, I would like to extend our best thanks to you both for the beautiful gift, which is a credit to the collection. It is thanks to enthusiasts and well-wishers that the Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Folk Museum now has a fine collection, which enables it to regularly mount new exhibitions and rotate artefacts and photographs. This has only been possible because of the goodwill the museum enjoys within the community.\u00a0 \u201c<\/em> says Haraldur L. Haraldsson, the mayor, at the presentation. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The costume will henceforth be on display in the Sievertsen House for visitors.&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faldb\u00faningur madd\u00f6mu Rannveigar S\u00edvertsen var afhentur formlega \u00ed dag \u00e1 272 \u00e1ra afm\u00e6lisdegi hennar. \u00c1kve\u00f0i\u00f0 var a\u00f0 r\u00e1\u00f0ast \u00ed ger\u00f0 faldb\u00fanings fyrir tveimur \u00e1rum s\u00ed\u00f0an, \u00fe\u00e1 \u00e1 270 \u00e1ra st\u00f3rafm\u00e6lisdegi Rannveigar.
