Finnish Design Shop x The Met

The Tones of Modernism Collection draws inspiration from the delicate hues found in Helena Schjerfbeck’s paintings.

To celebrate the opening of the exhibition "Seeing Silence: The Paintings of Helene Schjerfbeck" at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Finnish Design Shop has collaborated with @metmuseum on a special collection of furniture and interior objects titled the Tones of Modernism Collection.

The limited-edition collection brings together five distinguished Finnish design brands: Artek, Iittala, Lapuan Kankurit, Nikari, and the natural scent house Hetkinen, in a tribute to Schjerfbeck’s quietly radical expression, delicate colour palette, and pioneering role in Finnish modernist art.
