Fun facts:

TAPIOLA - IN THE SHELTER OF THE FOREST In Kalevala poetry, Tapiola refers to the forest – the dwelling place of Tapio, the Finnish forest spirit, along with his folk and creatures. Hunters sought good fortune from Tapio, as well as a good harvest of berries and mushrooms. The keenest wanderer might get a glimpse of Tapio in the bark of a tree, if they know what to look for. True to its name, the Kupilka Suova 20 Tapiola cup is adorned with Finnish animals familiar from Kalevala: bear, crane, snake, pike, and moose. A beautiful decorative band encircles the entire cup. Snow-white squirrel, mountain-jewel, Flower of the field and forest, Haste thee whither I would send thee, Into Metsola’s wide limits, Into Tapio’s seat of wisdom. Kalevala, rune 20
