Ukko Earrings

Ukko - a distinctive collection of wooden earrings that embody the spirit of Finnish mythology and design. Designed by Michel Nader, these earrings are a testament to artistic expression and cultural heritage.

The name is inspired by Ukko, the revered god of the sky, weather, harvest, and thunder in Finnish mythology. Known for his strength and power, Ukko's symbolism is cleverly intertwined in the design, representing not just physical strength but the creative force and virility inherent in nature and humanity.

Each piece is meticulously handcrafted from the finest Finnish wood, sourced responsibly from the lush forests surrounding the Helsinki Metropolitan Area.

Measuring at an elegant length of 2.5cm, these earrings are designed to be noticeable and lightweight. The non-allergic studs ensure that they are suitable for all skin types and comfortable without compromising on style.

Additionally, these earrings carry a unique slice of contemporary Finnish culture. They remind of the playful tradition found in Finnish military forests, where conscripts carve phallic symbols during their compulsory military service to pass the time. This blend of modern storytelling and ancient symbolism makes "Ukko's Hammer" more than just a piece of jewellery; it's a conversation starter, a piece of art, and a tribute to Finnish lore and modern-day narratives.

Ukko – wear it with pride, carry a piece of mythology, and embrace the fusion of tradition and contemporary artistry.
