Aarikka- original bold and natural


Aarikka is a socially and environmentally conscious Finnish family business focusing on handmade jewellery&homeware with natural feeling.
Aarikka-journey started from a simple thing as buttons and has continued through decades ever since.

Reminder for all of us: "Great things start with small beginnings!"

Some of my favourites from their homeware collection.
 Why? They are cheeky, playful and make me feel good!

"Some like it hot"
Sitting naked in a dimly lit, hot and humid space may sound strange, but a visit to Finnish sauna is so much more enjoyable than it sounds.
