By now we all know that nursery furniture doesn’t have to be covered with little cute animals or come in blue or pink to be comfortable, safe and effective. We’ve seen some wild examples of real gold gilded bassinets, one with wheels,  that emulates the heartbeat and sound of the mother’s voice and the colorful, pop art-like colorful Cascara bassinets with stands.

The Længsel Freyja Baby Crib is further proof of the new design aesthetic for baby furniture that appeals to even the most discerning sophisticate. The neutral colored, minimalist, rocking cradle is beautifully designed and sustainably produced.

Working with local materials and sustainable processes, the pieces by Længsel have the strong architectural lines and modern style seen in much of Scandinavian design, only they are inspired by Portuguese historical marks, landscapes and culture.

The modern and minimalist Freyja Baby Crib swings smoothly and quietly. It’s composed of a lightweight carrycot that can be easily lifted from the swing structure and transported by hand.
