A Piece of Icelandic Heritage

The text is taken from one of Iceland's most cherished Christmas hymns, "Nóttin var sú ágæt ein" (That Blessed Night), written by Reverend Einar Sigurðsson, who was born in 1536. This hymn, likely composed in the late 16th century, has been sung by Icelanders for generations, making these napkins a meaningful addition to your holiday celebrations.
