Genuine – Handmade Beauty from the North
Product Details
Genuine is more than a design book—it’s a quiet celebration of craftsmanship, heritage, and the beauty of making things by hand. Written and photographed by Riitta Sourander, this visually rich volume explores the enduring artistry of Finnish makers, blending past traditions with the work of contemporary artisans carrying that legacy forward today.
Through atmospheric photography and thoughtful storytelling, the book captures the textures, materials, and rituals that define Nordic craftsmanship—from weathered wooden objects to intricate woven forms and time-honored techniques passed down through generations.
It’s the kind of book you leave out not just because it looks beautiful, but because it makes a space feel more thoughtful, more grounded, and a little more inspired.
