Marja Hepo-aho
Glass artist and glassblower
Mafka products and artworks are designed and manufactured by glass artist Marja Hepo-aho in an old glass factory in Riihimäki, Finland.
Her timeless objects combine traditional glass working and modern design. Individual Mafka glass products are high-quality, mouth-blown functional art.
"The best part in working with glass is when an epiphany paves way for creating something completely new. The best ideas often hide behind the veil of apparent simplicity."
