Description

The Household Spirit figurine from Tapio Anttila Collection brings good fortune and care to the home – at least if you follow the included instructions to keep this little gnome happy. In Finnish folklore, the gnome-like household spirits were thought to protect the home, promoting beauty and good manners and, in return, caring for its residents. Household Spirit makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who cherishes a beautiful home and a touch of magic.

Designed by Tapio Anttila, this wooden figurine is part of Tapio's Creatures collection, drawing inspiration from the spirits and gnomes of Finnish mythology. Each figurine, featuring a softly minimal, mysterious expression, is hand-carved in Finland from leftover pine wood and finished by burning and varnishing the surface, highlighting its natural grain. Every piece is unique, with individual cracks and subtle color variations, and each includes a base plate with the character's and designer's names.

Tapio Anttila

Tapio Anttila (b. 1962) is an award-winning Finnish interior architect and furniture designer whose timeless, unassuming style is deeply rooted in Finnish design tradition – yet with a modern, boundary-pushing approach. Having graduated as an interior architect in 1994, Anttila worked as an in-house designer for the Finnish Isku Interior before founding his own design agency Tapio Anttila Design in 2005. Anttila has designed furniture and products for the likes of Lundia, Showroom Finland and Maze, and in 2016, he founded his very own furniture brand Tapio Anttila Collection.

Tapio Anttila’s favorite material is wood, particularly Finnish wood. He often strives to find new ways to use and work with wood in his design work, whether it be solid wood, bent wood veneer or even birchbark. Wood is connected to Nordic traditions and closeness to nature but is also a very eco-friendly choice for a material – sustainability is one of Anttila’s guiding principles as a designer.

Anttila has been awarded the 2018 Kaj Franck Prize and the internationally acclaimed Good Design Award, the latter numerous times! In addition, he has been awarded the Finnish Furniture Designer of the Year 2012 award and the international Top Designer Award 2017.
