What is a kuksa?
A kuksa is a cup hand carved from birch burrs and respecting the ancestral traditions of the Sami people.
We are convinced that a kuksa is a symbolic object, which allows to celebrate a moment of happiness. That's why we decided to create a guide that allows you to know a little more about these emblematic wooden cups of the Great North.
The most important thing to remember about kuksa and the values it conveys is that a true kuksa is a cup made by your own hands or a cup given to us. Because, according to the Sami, to offer a kuksa is to offer happiness.

Dive into the heart of Finland
Because we are in love with Finland and its nature, all our kuksa have a Finnish name representing a characteristic of this wonderful country.
My experience with the Kuska Shop was outstanding from beginning to end. I was looking for a tradional kuska and found just what I was looking for from this site. Ordering was easy and fast. Shipping was fast as well. My cup was very well protected with straw like packaging material and boxed to withstand it's long journey by mail. Directions on how to maintain my kuska was also included. Couldn't ask for anything more.
