New to Mr Sparrow: Kauniste

Kauniste is a Finnish company that was created by uniting the talents of young Scandinavian graphic designers and craftsmen. They aim to pair bright fresh designs with traditional screen printing skills, in products for the everyday.

They are environmentally conscious in their manufacturing, using water based, solvent free inks for printing, and a linen blend fabric. The linen absorbs moisture well, dries fast, and there is very little surplus waste in production.

We have part of their collection in store, including cushion covers, trays, aprons, tea towels, and tote bags, featuring their simple yet fun designs. And the best thing is that you can treat yourself or pick one of these up as a gift without breaking the bank. Just check out that amazing forest scene design in the last image!

If you can't make it into Mr Sparrow soon, don't fret - their products are now available online too!
