People have met around the fire since the dawn of time, and for us the flame represents comfort, a chance to unwind, and an opportunity to spend time with loved ones.
Founded in Stockholm in 2015 and now based inParis,Elduarm combines Scandinavian heritage withFrench elegance.
My love for the fire
Growing up in Scandinavia,fire was always important to me. Mychildhoodhomewasheatedthroughthewinterwithseveral interiorfireplacesandinsummer,familyandfriendsgatheredby theoutdoorfireplaceatmybelouedgrandparents'summerhomein seaside Torekou.
Mygrandmother,Ninne,taughtme about the deeper,timelessquality of beauty. She educated me in the art of creating an inviting home and the fireplace was often the centrepiece because it waswhere the family connected.
We Scandinavians have a unique relationship with light and fire, due to the dramatic contrast between our long,cold,dark winters and short summers of endless light.In ancient times,people worked outdoors all summer while the winters were spent together in front of the fire,telling stories while crafting,polishing and perfecting objects.Ibelieve there is a strong connection between fire and the heritage ofNordic craft and design.
It is said that in ancient nomadic times,it was the woman's responsibility to carry and preserve the fire when the families moved to a new area.I love the romantic allure in this story-the caring, motherly affections so intimately linked with the fire and the fireplace.
We have a boutique manufacturing process, producing in small batches and using only the finest materials. Much of the work is done by hand, and this supreme craftsmanship can be seen in every finished product.
Love of Materials
One of the most important choices when making products is the selection of materials,especially when it comes to sustainability.We take great care to make sure everythingwe use is as clean and ethical as possible.
Sustainabilityisalsoaboutdurability
Our thoughtfully designed products are made with materials that will last over time.We love the subtle changes as they develop patina.
Our respect for nature
We find inspiration in nature and its beauty,and we try our best to respect it throughout our production process.Some might say it's in ourgenes...we're Scandinavian,afterall! Sweden is home toa small population living in a very big country with an abundance of nature. Children are taught from a very young age about their responsibility to nature and the importance of leaving it undisturbed.These values run through our design and company.
Leather
Leather provides a warm, tactile contrast to the hard metal,while also adding a luxurious feel.We use only vegetable-tanned leather, produced using an ancient tanning technique that harnesses the power ofnatural tannins.Our leather is carefully hand-stitched onto our products,ensuring a texture that is soft to the touch
All ourleatherisvegetable-tannedandchrome free.
Wood
We only use wood sourced from certified sustainably managed forests. No two trees are identical,and so no two Eldvarm handles are identical either.We think wood's natural variations should be celebrated. Skilled craftsmanship ensures our wood components have beautiful details,from ripples to hard edges and smooth corners-retaining the connection to the wood in its natural state.
OurwoodisalwaysFSCcertified.
Brushes
When it came to the brush bristles,we really think we went above and beyond.We needed bristles thatwould hold theirshape over time,that could properlycleana fireplace and thatwere not synthetic.When we could not find anything that was good enough,we made our own unique blend!
Our perfect bristles combine 50 % Tampico\*with 50 % horse hair. We chose Tampico for its resistance to heat and ability to keep its shape. This kind of bristle is what bakers traditionally use in their ovens.We also loved the lookof old fashioned fireplace brusheswith horse hair (perfect for scooping fine dust),so we added that to the mix.
Ourbrushes are loo%natural fibres.
Metal
Metal and fire go hand in hand.Humans discovered the power and utility of metal thousands of years ago and have been developing its production ever since.The coarseness of metal work may seem at odds with the refinement of our finished products,but when tending a fire you really only have the option of working with metal.
Steel is a durable and sustainable material,making itanatural choice for us.Itis robust and gives structure,and can also be easily recycled and reused.
Brass has been a consistent defining signature accent for Eldvarm since we launched our very first product.We love the golden detail that solid brass adds.
Ourpowder coatingis toxic-free.
A fireplace is often the centrepiece of a room. It is our belief that the accessories standing alongside it should be beautiful enough to deserve this centre stage

Cooper, a fireplace's best friend. Designer Charles Kalpakian's minimalist interpretation offers a modern twist on classic fire dogs.
Keep the sparks at bay!
Elegance and utility go hand in hand with our take on the classic freestanding fireplace screen,perfect for containing jumping sparks and hot embers.
A fireplace isn't always lit,so Emma Olbers designed a screen that is beautiful to look at,with or without a fire flickering behind it. The screen adds charm to a room with its elegant curves and very Scandinavian design expression.
LouLou &Lucie
At Eldvarm,we think that many of the best conversations are accompanied by the ambiance of candle light-and that often a conversation is timed by howlong it takes fora candle to burn.
Our candle holder collaboration with Charles Kalpakian has,so far, resulted in these joyful creations.
Lucie is inspired by the classic hourglass shape,while LouLou's elegant silhouette draws inspiration from the soothing ripples of the ocean.
A lantern for every occasion. The way the hand blown glass reflects the flame is pure magic.
