Finnish Design Shop’s November novelties offer a fresh take on gift-giving. Whether you’re spoiling yourself or surprising someone special, we’ll help you pack a piece of Nordic happiness into every gift box!
For those longing for spring
Paper Collective's delicate Spring Afternoon poster depicts the tranquility of a perfect spring day, with a serene figure resting effortlessly, lost in the bliss of doing absolutely nothing. Designed by Sacrée Frangine, this artwork offers a gentle reminder that the lighter, brighter seasons are just around the corner.
Paper Collective's posters are printed in limited editions and part of each sold poster will be donated to a good cause.
For the flower lover
Who could resist the charm of flowers? Design House Stockholm’s sleek Hydraulic vase is a perfect match for both vibrant single stems and delicate branches. Designed by Isa Andersson, the steel vase is made using an innovative hydraulic pressing technique, making each piece entirely unique – no two are ever the same.

For the bird enthusiast
Oiva Toikka's Butler is a majestic bird, flaunting its elegant tuxedo, refined crest feathers and long beak. Its striped suit is crafted using a special filigree technique that once again showcases the masterful craftsmanship of Iittala's glassblowers.
This fall, the Butler makes a rare appearance in a bold orange costume. Limited to just 300 pieces, this special edition is a true collector’s gem, available exclusively at Iittala and Finnish Design Shop.
For the puzzle solver
A puzzle is both the best and the worst gift, often at the same time. We’ve all felt the frustration of wrestling with pieces that look nearly identical but aren't, only to be rewarded with the satisfaction of placing the final piece and seeing the complete picture.
Printworks' 1000-piece Part and Whole puzzle is the perfect challenge for cozy holiday afternoons. And once it’s finished, the fun doesn’t end! See how many iconic design objects you can spot hidden in the image. Our team noticed the Akari lamp—what treasures will you uncover?
For dogs and their humans
Stockholm-based brand Masimalo creates high-quality dog accessories that blend Scandinavian design with sustainability. Their sleek harnesses, collars, and leashes are partially made from recycled materials, making them as eco-friendly as they are stylish.
The Arch harness is designed to suit dogs of all shapes and sizes, thanks to its adjustable fit. Made with recycled PET plastic and vegetable-tanned leather, the harness becomes softer and more comfortable with each use, ensuring both style and durability for your furry friend.
