Teemu Järvi is an artist and designer of many awards. He specializes in wilderness themes. The works derive from the artist’s lifelong love of nature. A ceaseless explorer of Finnish woods and lakes, Järvi is familiar with the wildlife through first-hand experience. Here, he features the "Kapy" or pinecones. He works with traditional tools such as the reed pen, creating works of art that transport us from our hectic urban existence to the soothing calm of primeval wilderness. Teemu Järvi’s craftsmanship is intimate. Like a hunter-gatherer of old, he too has a deep connection with the tools and models he uses. His work focuses on the essential: the amazingly complex and diverse nature, ever diminishing under the stress of our modern life.

love the Lapuan Kankurit tea towels, the linen softens with use, they wash beautifully, absorb really well, and look great hanging in the kitchen. Love the pine cones on this design. Well worth the price.
