Deadwood doesn’t grow overnight.

TERWAKELO DOESN’T SHOUT.
IT IS JUST THERE.

TERWAKELO is a phone case made from genuine Nordic birch, tar-treated to a grayish finish. The tone recalls deadwood — old timber that has stood for years, the silence of the northern forest. No shine. No fuss. No mass production.

01

Spirit of deadwood. No copy.

Each wooden phone case is made from genuine Nordic birch. The grayish tar treatment makes every piece unique — mass production can’t do this.

02

Oulu. Tar tradition.

Lastu was born in Oulu — the historic tar city. TERWAKELO is a more understated take on that heritage: drier, smokier, calmer.

MagSafe. Engraving. You.

No stock.
Made in the Nordics, to order.

Each TERWAKELO phone case is made to order from Nordic birch. The grayish tone comes from the combined effect of the tar treatment and the wood’s natural aging. When you pick up your phone, you feel real wood — not cold plastic.

Tar A restrained tar scent — smoky and calm. No stickiness, no staining.
