ILMARI KUURA

Finnish & international collection. Available from our international partners too.

Made from Finnish soapstone, the ILMARI KUURA base optimises the use of Kiuassuola on the heater.

Like the first breath of a frosty morning,
ILMARI KUURA is quiet and calming - part of the Northern soulscape.

Designed for the Sauna — made of Stone

Soapstone Blue is an ancient, naturally shaped material that binds both heat and stories to itself.

Each ILMARI KUURA soapstone base is unique, created by nature and finished in the hands of a craftsman.

ILMARI KUURA is not just a soapstone base.

It is part of the sauna ritual, a moment to pause, open your senses and breathe.

Using Kiuassuola sauna salt on the ILMARI KUURA base brings together two pure, strong natural materials - salt and stone.

Kiuassuola evaporates slowly, bringing a new depth to the steam.

The soapstone stores heat, and thus optimizes the performance of Kiuassuola.
The evaporation is intense, but saves Kiuassuola for several sauna sessions.

The ILMARI KUURA soapstone base allows you to use Kiuassuola safely and with style.

Soapstone Blue is rarer than common bedrock in Finland.

Its unique and multi-layered color variation is like the frost on a winter morning – magnificent and unique.

The cube shape is stable and fits well with Finnish saunas and the Finnish mindset, being straightforward, timeless and peaceful.

ILMARI KUURA is a collaboration between Kiuassuolan Lumo and Tulikivi, inspired by the natural forces in the North.

ILMARI KUURA comes with one Kiuassuola Himalayan rock salt or Atlantic sea salt, depending on your choice. We offer a 6-month warranty on the ILMARI KUURA base.

Please read the safety and usage instructions. If the ILMARI KUURA is damaged due to improper use, it will be replaced upon presentation of the receipt and a photo.
