Eero HintsanenEero Hintsanen
Born and raised in the Finnish countryside, Eero loves the nature and simple Scandinavian way of living.
He also enjoys visiting big metropolises around the world.
Eero combines these two strong influences- the wild imagination from his childhood and the contemporary urban culture- to create jewelry which often has a touch of humor.
