Who is Rune-Jakobsen Design?

Rune-Jakobsen Design is a Danish design studio, founded in 2016 by Kari and Torben Rune-Jakobsen, specializing in handcrafted kitchenware, and lifestyle products.

Crafted – Not Produced.

At Rune-Jakobsen Design, we create more than kitchenware—we craft meaningful objects for everyday living. Rooted in Scandinavian minimalism and precision craftsmanship, our pieces are designed to last for generations. Each item is made to order using sustainably sourced wood and natural materials, lovingly handcrafted in our own Danish workshop.

Founded and run by husband-and-wife team Kari and Torben Rune-Jakobsen, our brand stands as a testament to quality, authenticity, and personal connection. Under the name Rune-Jakobsen Woodworks, we personally produce a curated line of handmade home furnishings and kitchen accessories in our small cabinet shop—because we believe the best design comes from makers who care.

We proudly partner only with independent, like-minded manufacturers who share our uncompromising commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship.

Our range also includes Scandinavian agency rights for:
– Tessitura Toscana Telerie: Exquisite home textiles from Italy
– Alexander Handcrafted Mills: Timeless spice grinders, handmade in Greece

For interior professionals and design-conscious clients, we offer both B2C and B2B access to our collection. Select products are available for wholesale via the Faire platform.

Every product we create or represent carries its own unique design DNA—where functionalism meets artistry.

That small difference? It’s what makes all the difference.

FAQ

Personally, Kari and I find it super annoying to be bombarded with emails asking for customer reviews every time we shop online or have a package delivered. That's why we don't send out emails to our customers asking for reviews as a matter of principle - but we are always happy when a customer takes the trouble to send an email with feedback or write a Google review or a review on Trustpilot on their own initiative.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Super quality and craftsmanship

Good website with detailed information about the product structure and quality. Bought a knife magnet in oak which is a super beautiful handwork and of high quality. Flexibility in relation to changes in the ordered product. I can recommend buying from Rune Jakobsen

Beautiful, solid item. It is very hard to find quality made items these days, and I'm very happy that I searched the internet enough and found this website. I will purchase more in the future. The time from order to delivery was shorter than I expected as I live in the USA.

Hi Torben, Thank you for my nice knife magnet. You were absolutely right, and you don't have to be modest about it at all: you make the best knife magnets! Worth all the money! Thank you so much for that 🙏

Hello Torben, ich habe das Messerbrett soeben mongett. Es ist einfach perfect! Es sieht super aus und die Magnetkraft ist excellent. Ein Foto habe ich angehängt. Ganz herzlichen Dank für diese tolle Arbeit! Many greetings

We wanted a specific product in another wood type, not normally offered. However, swift reply let us know that he would be willing to do it at no extra charge. Very good experience, beautiful designs and stellar customer service would buy here again!
