Piece of poetic design
HAY's delicate favorite, the Matin luminaire by Inga Sempé, is now available in a wall and ceiling-mounted version. The metal frame of the lamp supports the pleated cotton shade, whose lightweight appearance brings a charming and elegant atmosphere to the space. Would the gift recipient enjoy a bright or light pastel color?

Furry friends
A person who loves to use a traditional paper calendar is delighted by Teemu Järvi's Best Friend calendar, which decorates the wall like a work of art. If the four-legged furry friends are also close to the gift recipient's heart, this gift will be a success. The calendar presents 12 adorable dog pictures printed on off-white, environmentally friendly paper.

An everyday assistant
Steamery's products are now available at Finnish Design Shop! A steamer is a great tool for quick garment care: hot steam not only straightens and smoothes but also removes odors and kills bacteria, extending the washing interval of clothes. In addition to practicality, the minimalist Cirrus steamer pleases the eye and is packed in a beautiful cover bag, which is convenient while traveling.

If a friend’s home office is reminiscent of chaos, it’s time to put the workstation in order.

Partially made of recycled materials, the box gathers work accessories at the end of the day, but is also suitable for storing other small, important items.

Woody notes
In case of a gifting emergency, a high-quality scented candle is always a desired item that will delight even after burning – the container can be reused, for example, as a tealight cup. Frama’s Deep Forest scented candle spreads earthy, woody aromas and is made from sustainably sourced vegetable wax. A candle snuffer will give the gift a final touch.
