Aallokko sauna cover $47.40

Description

The Aallokko sauna cover, designed by Reeta Ek for Lapuan Kankurit, features a lovely pattern depicting waves. That's also where the cover's name comes from: Aallokko is Finnish for “waves” or “swell”.

Woven at the Lapuan Kankurit weaving mill in Finland, the cover is made from a high-quality blend of linen and cotton, making it highly absorbent yet extremely quick-drying. The size allows the cover to also be used as a table runner. 

Lapuan Kankurit donates part of the proceeds of the Aallokko sauna covers to the John Nurminen Foundation, whose Clean Baltic Sea project supports the well-being of the Baltic Sea – so that future generations can also enjoy its waves.

Reeta Ek

Reeta Ek (b.1979) is an artist, who holds a Master’s degree in textile art from the Aalto University in Helsinki. She has worked as a textile designer for companies like Marimekko, Nanso and Lapuan Kankurit. Ek finds inspiration for her work from things in everyday life, rhythm and colors. According to Ek: ”Good ideas are often born in the morning by a cup of coffee and browsing the newspaper. However, you can’t sit down and wait for the inspiration to come, but it evolves and grows by doing, and also through mistakes.” Reeta Ek won the Young Designer of the Year prize in September 2017.
