Genuine – Handmade Beauty from the North

GENUINE – Handmade Beauty from the North book pays tribute to Finnish artisanal heritage and a beauty that is both meaningful and worth preserving.

The visually stunning publication showcases artefacts from the past alongside contemporary artists and artisans – modern-day masters – who draw inspiration from this rich Nordic heritage.
