Canal House Groningen Earrings

Sale priceSGD 17.00

A canal house, also known as a grachtenpand, is a type of housing commonly found in the Netherlands. These dwellings are generally historic, built in a narrow and tall style, with a basement and loft.

Canal houses typically have a width of no more than 30ft (9 metres), featuring large, thin windows and decorative gable tops. Narrow stairs maximize space but make the removal of furniture and goods a laborious task, thus pulleys are usually employed to transport heavier items upstairs. This particular architecture is a defining feature of the Dutch landscape.

While Canal House is found in various cities in the Netherlands, the color of this specific brooch is inspired from the Canal house where the founder of ourheartbeads used to live, in the city of Groningen.
