Description
Textile designer Aoi Yoshizawa is one of the artists inspired by the Harakka Island. Aoi designed us gorgeous SAARI. Although a native of Tokyo, Japan, Aoi has grown to love Finnish nature: “It is important to observe nature – to find beautiful colour compositions and textures.” The design SAARI is inspired by horizon views she observes from the island: “My favourite place in Harakka is the seashore where you can see the long horizon towards the south. I just love to stare at the horizon, exploring the texture of the waves and feeling the fresh air. Being outside on the island is the best way of looking for ideas for design and artworks.” She finds the Finnish seascape very dreamlike and fascinating. Multi use 100% linen cloth may be used as a tablecloth but also as linen blanket that can be used either on the sofa or the bed. Washed linen doesn’t need to be ironed, some wrinkles are allowed, and even wanted to get the right relaxed look on it. Light linen blanket is good specially on the hot days of summer. This multiuse linen could also be used as light curtains if you wish.
Traceable natural materials
We have used Masters of Linen–certified 100 % linen yarn for both the warp and weft, spun from fully traceable long staple flax. We love flax as a material, for it is a durable, comfortable and environmentally friendly fibre.
Our flax grows with the power of rainwater in the temperate climate of central Europe, needing no irrigation. The yarns have been spun and dyed in the EU area according to the REACH regulations.
Did you know that linen is an ecological choice also because the dirt comes off it even when washed at 40 degrees Celsius?
Own transparent production
The most significant part of the production is done by the fourth generation of weavers in our own weaving mill in Lapua, Finland. We want to be responsible for the production of our products ourselves, starting from the yarn all the way to the finished product.
The product design, material purchases, loom programming and warping as well as the pre-work stages, weaving and fabric inspection are done in our own weaving mill in Lapua, Finland. The sewing is done in our subsidiary’s own sewing department in Kaunas, Lithuania, or in our own sewing department in Lapua. The product finishing is done in our finishing plant in Lapua, Finland.
Thanks to owning our production, we are able to design our products and processes so that our ecological footprint stays as small as possible.
