Long Term Benefits
"I love working with the MÄVINN collections since all the creating occurs in collaboration with skilled social businesses. This year's theme is table settings, which sparked the idea of integrating something edible – and figs felt like a perfect choice. The caterpillar acts as a small mascot and becomes different striped patterns in the design. I love how the organic materials harmonise with the bold colours and hope you will appreciate the craftsmanship behind each piece."
Then you'll surely remember the scents, vibe and all the lovely handmade things in the colours of a rainbow. We want to evoke the same feeling with the items in the MÄVINN collection where modern design unites with traditional craftsmanship. All created and produced in collaboration with social businesses around the world that create jobs for people who need them the most. Browse and choose your favourites, just like at a local crafts market.
