Elf Sitting, small
The best time to sit by the lake is when the sun is setting soon. The Elf Elsa knew this and pondered that the sun seemed to drown as it was going below the horizon. There was little time to enjoy the sun, so the Elf ran, all two meters, until falling down on the Elf Sitter, sitting on the ground.
“What are you doing down there!?” The Elf Elsa screamed, scrambling to get up. “I’m sitting down?” The Elf Sitter said, confused. Wasn’t it obvious? Elf Elsa didn’t think so, as she was getting angry. “You can’t always be sitting! Stand up sometimes! Or lay down, or fall flat on your back!” Elf Elsa kept roaring, but the Elf Sitter just sat there. “Why make such as fuss”, the Elf Sitter said, and gestured for the other elf to sit down. Elf Elsa sat down, quietly. “Well, here we are”, Elf Elsa snapped finally, breaking the silence. “Where else?” Elf Sitter said. “When you are just sitting down, not doing anything else, you are always present.”
The red Elf Sitter is made from wooden beads, wearing a red hat. Elves are a great table setting and window decoration arrangement for all friends of Finnish handicraft.

Did you notice the wood grains?
Every wooden Aarikka item is unique, because every piece of wood is unique. Products are handmade, visible in them and the volume they are made in - small volumes for a need. So the small details of life are visible. Light stripes visible in the wooden pearls are made by Kaija's husband Erkki Ruokonen's unique technique, which is still used to hand-dye all wooden products in Raisio.
