Founded in 2021 in Stockholm, Ennisance is a distinctly Nordic brand with a global point of view. Ennisance takes its cue from the founder’s own life and her mastery of the aesthetics of art, craft and design history.
THE FOUNDER
I was born and brought up in the countryside of the Finnish Osthrobotnia with clear memories of running in the forests and oat fields daily as a child. I spent lots of time in my girlhood at my grandmother’s house. She was an artist and collector of Finnish 20th century art and her home was filled with paintings, sculptures, porcelain and flower patterns everywhere, both in textiles and on the porcelain she painted. I have a treasured picture of her working on one of her sculptures, but I also remember every detail of the art on her walls.
Today, I realize that the experiences I had as a little girl were formative. Those of old world glamour, of history and arts, of nature and beautiful gardens. I feel it is a natural outcome that I have developed a great passion and appreciation of unique high quality handicrafts.
I don’t believe in overly designed environments or hard rules on how our living spaces must be. I am attracted to an authentic process of change, whereby your home transforms through an inclusion of things we love. The process of decorating is one of collecting and curating your space with timeless objects and design, that have meaning and breath, and that offer a biographical insight into an heirloom. I love a blend of objects from different centuries, continents and genres. Art and collectibles that have an ability to speak to your soul can give your home a character as unique as your own. I believe it is this mix that makes a house, a home that we love spending our lives in.
Love,
Enni

SUSTAINABILITY
At Ennisance, our products and materials are ethically sourced and crafted to withstand the test of time. We prioritize cruelty-free practices and utilize natural materials such as silk, linen, wool, cashmere, and organic cotton, alongside antique or recycled materials that carry the charm of bygone eras.
Each bespoke item is meticulously made to order, minimizing waste and overstock. Our fabrics consist exclusively of natural fibers, reflecting our commitment to environmentally friendly processes. We strive to repurpose all remnants in the production of new products, with our pillows incorporating recycled feathers for added sustainability.
Our supply chain protocol reflects an unwavering dedication to quality and sustainability, guiding every decision through a “Green Lens” to ensure that beauty and responsibility coexist harmoniously. This version maintains clarity and engagement while effectively communicating Ennisance’s commitment to sustainability.
UNIQUENESS
Our wallpapers originate from the serene landscapes of the Nordics, drawing inspiration from the enchanting beauty of Enni’s garden and the surrounding natural world. Each design is meticulously hand-painted using watercolors and gouache on hand-dyed silk and gilded papers, employing centuries-old chinoiserie painting techniques.
We are committed to using authentic natural materials, despite the challenges they may present. We avoid silk imitations and pre-existing patterns, opting instead to craft original creations that offer a fresh perspective. After all, the world has already witnessed enough of the ordinary.
