Carelian soapstone

2.8 billion years ago earth was still at the very early stage of its history. There was not a single living thing on earth and the continental blocks started moving to their modern day positions. Volcanic activity was very high even in Scandinavia, which is one of the oldest geological areas on earth.

Mother Nature gave Carelian soapstone mythical capabilities to withstand harsh, Nordic environment. It can handle equally well hot fire of freezing cold. It is capable of accumulating both heat as well as cold. And it stays warm or cold for a long time. This is one of the unique characteristics of Hukka products.

Carelian soapstone is relatively soft stone material, that can be crafted to various shapes and forms by experienced craftsmen. Even though soft, the stone is very dense and heavy material. For example, it does not absorb any liquids or tastes. Soapstone has been tested and approved to be used in preparing or storing food products. Soapstone is extremely sturdy stone material, that can withstand well challenges of modern environment. 2.8 billion years long “manufacturing process” has prepared it for most of the challenges it might encounter.
