The Chinese lantern is a flowering plant with oval leaves and beautiful calyces that resemble a lantern. When the calyx withers, out comes the fruit – the start of something new. Designed by Riina Heinonen, Alku is a rich plant-themed pattern that is inspired by the idea of concealed beauty.
The Alku potholder’s practical stitched groove, running diagonally from corner to corner, provides a better grip and protects your hands from hot cookware. The comfortable and pliable wadding protects against high temperatures. The product’s CE marking indicates that it has been tested for adequate protection against contact heat. The potholder has a loop on its side. The set includes two potholders.
The potholder is made of 100% rib weave cotton, which is firm and rather thick. 50% of the cotton is recycled. We are always looking for substitutes for cotton and ways to increase the number of recycled materials we use. Update the look of your kitchen by ordering other Alku textiles to complement the potholders. The story of the Alku pattern: Designed by Riina Heinonen, the Alku pattern shows us how beauty can remain hidden until the last minute. Beauty can also conceal the start of something new. When the flower of the Chinese lantern withers and the fruit begins to develop, it is concealed by an orange calyx. When the calyx withers and becomes meshy, it reveals the fruit inside. Fragility can mean vulnerability, but it can also expose something beautiful under the surface.
