Luomus Koivu is a serving platter and a order unique piece of art for your dining table or home decor. It is fully designed and handmade by me in Lappeenranta, Finland.
I got an inspiration to create this plate when I enjoyed autumn walk with my family in nearby forest. I saw a dead Birch leaf falling through a ray of sun light. The beauty of it took hold of me and I wished the moment would never end. At that instance I decided to transform that feeling into an item which would be cherished and enjoyed through the darkest of winter and warmest of summer. The item became Luomus Koivu - a platter formed as the falling Birch leaf. Check the story behind Luomus Koivu in

This serving platter is made from locally produced thoroughly colored Baltic birch. The birch material is harvested valuing sustainable forest management rules laid in international FSC certificate. To me, sustainability is personally important factor in the material I use, as I want my son to have a clean and green world to live in.
The serving platter can be used as a plate or a small tray to serve food. All material (the wood, the glue, the surface treatment) are carefully selected "food safe" products. Food can be laid on the plate to give your serving a fine dining atmosphere.
The size of the leaf is approximately 28x28cm (11 x 11 in).
