What would we be without nature?
Nature feeds us and sets the rhythm of life. Night, day, summer, winter. Whether our home is in Helsinki, Lapland, or Tokio, nature is part of us. And we are part of nature. But our connection has withered over time. Few of us have the time or chance to climb to the top of a fell, sit quietly in the forest, or see the cliffs shaped by the sea. Because nature gives us so much more than just nourishment.
It feeds us.
50-year journey from ceramics to lifestyle.
Pentik has been a part of homes for over 50 years, founded in 1971 by the artist Anu Pentik. Our story began when Anu moved to Posio in Finnish Lapland for work. Captivated by the breathtaking nature, ever changing seasons, and genuine people, she made it her home. Pentik was born - own, genuine and beautiful.
Initially known for its beautiful handmade ceramics, Pentik has since evolved into a brand that embraces a complete lifestyle approach. From the early days of creating unique ceramic pieces like the imperfect, yet beautiful Kaamoskivi chandelier - inspired by the rugged Lapland landscape - we continue to blend nature and design in everything we do. Today, our collections reflect a timeless love for craft, creativity, and the simplicity of Nordic living, while still honoring our roots in hand-crafted ceramics.
Crafting personal homes with Nordic vibe.
For more than half a centry, Pentik has brought the essence of Nordic living into homes. We empower people to create homes that are warm, joyful and inviting - rooted in the simplicity and natural beauty of Scandinavian design.
At Pentik, authenticity is at the heart of everything we do. Our focus on craftsmanship and creativity is evident in our hand-made ceramics, hand painted patterns, and our unique approach to color. Each piece reflects the ingenuity of Nordic design, celebrating the timeless charm of nature and the art of living beautifully, yet simply. With Pentik, it’s not just about decorating - it’s about creating a home that tells a story, feels welcoming, and reflects the Scandinavian way of life.
Our designers
Our designers' main mission is to bring nature to people and into their homes. Through shapes, colours, patterns, and materials. Pentik products, such as Lohkare, Vilja, and Tuntu, are all born from a relationship with nature.
The world's northernmost
Ceramics factory
We manufacture ceramics in our home in Posio, right next to the Arctic Circle, in the northernmost ceramics factory in the world. The path from idea to finished product takes our ceramics through many pairs of skilled hands and decades of experience.
The beauty and bounty of nature and the changing seasons is an essential part of Pentik ceramics. When this force of nature is mixed with clay, something truly unique is born – products that are made in Finland and made with love.
