Anna Uhrväder (1759–1815), was a Finnish milliner active in Finland when it was part of Sweden and later when it was part of the Russian Empire.[1]
She was based in Turku, which was the capital in Finland at the time. She manufactured as well as sold various fashion items. She had a successful career between 1804 and 1812, when she was the leading of her profession in Finland, with clients among the rich burgher class as well as the nobility.
