KOIVU sauna pillow - Saunakissen

The KOIVU (“birch”) pattern is a classic designed by Marja Rautiainen. Birch trees, the most common deciduous trees in Finland, are a significant part of our country’s nature and culture. Birch holds a particularly special place in Finnish bathing and sauna traditions: it is the preferred wood for heating saunas, and traditional sauna whisks are most often made from silver birch. Woven from nature’s own materials, Lapuan Kankurit bath and sauna textiles celebrate the role of Finland’s national tree in everyday life.
Lapuan Kankurit weaves sauna textiles in company's own weaving mill in Lapua, Finland, using fully traceable raw materials: European long-staple linen and cotton. Company's unique finishing facility, located next to the weaving mill in Lapua, allows Lapuan Kankurit to give these textiles a high-quality finish. This means that, with proper care, the textile will retain its shape in home washing and maintain its form wash after wash.
Please note that our sauna pillows can be also used as a travel pillow. It’s also the perfect companion to take along to a yoga studio or for a day at the beach.
