Book
Hardcover. Condition: New. Showcasing Finnish design from the 1900s and early 2000s, this deck of cards reflects the finest crafts of the country in its images. From spades of ceramics and glassware and hearts of furniture and lamps to diamonds of textiles, clothes, and jewelry and clubs of equipment and tools, the set captures a wide variety of Scandinavian handiwork. The kings, queens, and jacks portray real-life designers who are literally clothed in their own creations while the jokers are represented by two personalities who have had a significant influence in the field. Highlighting a diverse collection of distinct art objects, practical interior decoration, imaginative fashion, and more, this set provides a glimpse into a fascinating world along with the means for countless pastimes.
