It all started in the early 70’s when great pieces of Finnish Design appeared one  by  one into our  lives and our  homes. Beautiful  pieces of  furniture by Alvar  Aalto,  dinnerware  by Kaj  Franck,  textiles  by  Dora  Jung  and  few pieces of  bowls and vases by ..  Wirkkala and ..  Sarpaneva. It had nothing to do  with luxury, just good quality  Finnish industrial  design  that felt right for our home.  
 
Already in the 80’s we felt we had such a knowledge of Finnish Design that we could share it with other people. So vanhaa ja kaunista was founded in 1986.  Since  then  we  have  been  looking  for quality  pieces and icons of Finnish Design to our  customers  all  over the  world. vanhaa ja kaunista believes in good quality,  intuition and stability.  The past and the future can be combined…
