NEW collection: SAARISTO sauna covers and pillows
The SAARISTO sauna seat cover is a true Lapuan Kankurit classic, born from curiosity and craftsmanship.
The design originated years ago when our design team experimented with different weave structures in our weaving mill, exploring how texture, pattern, and material interact. The result was SAARISTO, a timeless and distinctive design that has remained a favourite ever since.
Woven from linen and cotton, the SAARISTO sauna seat cover is comfortable, durable, and perfectly suited for everyday sauna moments. Its textured surface feels pleasant against the skin while bringing a natural, relaxed atmosphere to the sauna.
The SAARISTO collection is available in two beautiful colourways: black-linen and green-linen. All products are woven in our own weaving mill in Lapua, Finland, where innovative textile design and generations of weaving expertise come together.

Meet the designer: Maëlis Ray
Maëlis Ray is a French textile designer who was born and raised in Lyon, the city known for its silk weaving tradition and the invention of the jacquard machine. Studying her bachelor’s at ESAAT and ENSAIT in Roubaix,another town with a history of textile industry, she pursued her master’s degree at the Swedish School of Textiles in Borås, Sweden, which she graduated from in 2023.
“Since the beginning, we have taken pride in being both kind and one of a kind.
What, then, keeps us original? Maybe it’s that we never settle. There’s always bigger dreams to dream, more to discover, more ways to do things better than ever.”
* Season’s stars *
Linen is one of our favourite materials. It is ecological, comfortable on the skin and easy to use.
Linen absorbs moisture effectively: a linen towel can soak moisture up to 20 % of its own weight without feeling wet. The fibre also releases moisture quickly, so the textiles dry fast. Due to the absorption capacity of linen less material is required for the products, which is why our linen towels are so light weight. Some of our bath products feature terrycloth, a pleasantly rough material which improves beneficial blood circulation and pampers the skin.
