Aarikka

Founded on February 24, 1954, in Helsinki, Finland, by Kaija Aarikka. Aarikka’s design was led by Pauliina Aarikka, Kaija's daughter. In 1955, a surprising commission for four necklaces from Dior in Paris lent wings to a bright future for Aarikka jewellery.

Over the decades, Aarikka’s in-house designers have also been joined by many guest designers such as Aino Favén, Jorma Vennola, Jukka Rintala, Tuula Falk, Markku Salo, Paola Suhonen, Anna Ruohonen, Anu Leinonen, Kalle Kuusela, Elina Helenius, Kaisli Kiuru, Anneli Aaltonen, and Eero Saarinen. Each of them has left their own mark on Aarikka’s language of design. The company is still going strong today.
