Dear Designer,

did you know that a hand-knotted carpet practically lasts forever and that it can handle heavy wear and tear and does not cost more than other modern designer carpets?

Artistica was founded in 1943 and has specialised in oriental carpets. We have an extensive selection put together by experts and over the years we have supplied carpets for the presidential palace, the city council and countless public buildings and representation rooms.

Our traditional carpets have not delivery time; rather all our models are one of a kind and are already present at our store in downtown Helsinki. There are carpets of several sizes from hall carpets to large carpets measuring many square metres. Each carpet has through its rich symbolism its own history.

We also serve designers!

Our shop has undergone a thorough renovation. We now also have a selection of new models along side of our traditional carpets. All carpets are however hand-knotted and made of natural wool and silk. Modern designed carpets can be ordered in several sizes. A soft carpet functions both as a work of art and as a acoustic element in the design. Fitting and transportation is free within the greater Helsinki area and to other areas by arrangement.
