Description
Terhi Tolvanen's jewelry is a tribute to nature, celebrating the beauty of branches, plants, and flowers with unconventional, sometimes angular or ominous designs. She balances tradition with innovation, using unexpected materials like silk, concrete, and rugged wood, while maintaining the craftsmanship of traditional jewelry. Over her 15-year career, nature increasingly inspired her, incorporating both imaginative and real plant elements into her work. Tolvanen's unique style has earned her a devoted following, with her pieces featured in major museums like the Stedelijk Museum, Rijksmuseum, and Design Museum Helsinki.
