Where wood, round shapes, and joy meet – Aarikka
Joyous, decorative, and informative.
This Japanese-language book celebrates the 70th anniversary of Aarikka. In this book, the story of Aarikka is beautifully illustrated, as an ode to the history and present day of Aarikka – and everything that happened in between. This book takes you to meet the people and stories behind Aarikka’s beloved products. How they were conceived and born – meticulously, piece by piece, sparing no hours, down to the last detail.
Handcraft is Aarikka’s second nature, where round shapes recur. The book is an ode to Finnish artisans. Hardworking and talented. Craftsmen. To Finnish design and craft.
The pictures, interviews, and newspaper clippings take you on a trip through the decades, presenting the accomplishments, prints, and jewellery of Aarikka, all the way to today. From its roots and how it stands up tall, proudly, as a renowned Finnish design house.
Kaija started it, and we continue. With veneration and respect. Boldly.
Come. Play with us.
