Hukka Design manufactures sustainable wellness, sauna, cooking and interior design products from 2.8 billion-year-old natural stone with 40 years of experience.

Unique material

Soapstone has a mystical ability to withstand the stresses of the Arctic environment. It can withstand both the heat of fire and the freezing cold. It can utilize their power more effectively than other natural stones, storing heat or cold uniquely effectively due to its density. Most HUKKA products are based on these properties.

The stone is therefore very dense and does not emit odors or flavors. Therefore, it has been tested and approved for food use.

  • Design from Finland

    Soapstone is a mystical material which
    does not bend easily to the craftsman’s
    will. Since we aim to respect its unique
    nature, many of our product ideas and
    their visual appearance are inspired by
    nature. Those responsible for the
    design and manufacture of our
    products can often be found spending
    time in the forests and lakes of North
    Karelia.

  • The made in Finland keyflag

    Hukka Design is a small family firm based in Tuupovaara, eastern Finland. We will soon have been producing soapstone implements and decorative objects for 40 years.
    Because we want our products to bring pleasure and joy to your life, we design them with care and make them from the best materials. HUKKA, quality that you can trust!

Design

Many of the people behind the ideas behind our products enjoy spending time in the forests, hiking, hunting, fishing and enjoying the untouched and beautiful nature of the lake region of Northeastern Finland in many ways. Most of the new design ideas come from nature. “We don’t need a big city with all its people, traffic, lights and noise to get inspired.”

Soapstone, with a history spanning over two billion years, is a magical and majestic material. “You can’t force stone, you have to see its spirit and respect it,” they say. “Green forests, blue lakes and the mythical silence of nature, as well as the occasional howl of a wolf (‘hukka’ is Finnish for wolf) are our sources of inspiration.”

Production

From humble beginnings in a small log cabin in Hoilola,right next to the Russian border,we have grown into a modern manufacturing anddesign company that utilizes the latest technology.We manufacture approximately 250,000 products annually.Since theproduction of small soapstone products is highly specialized,we have developed(and in some cases even manufactured)our production technology ourselves. Machines are important, of course, but the biggest"secret"of our success is the people who work here.Almost all of them have more than 20 years of experience in the field. They are true"oldschool"professionals who are proud of their skill and even more proud of the quality of each Hukka product.We always keep our promises!
