"Objects are made to be completed by the human mind." -Alvar Aalto
Taking inspiration from his native Finland's landscape, design pioneer Alvar Aalto combined simple design with a craftsman's expertise to create iconic home design pieces that are functional and sculptural. When Aalto introduced the fluid wave shape for Iittala, it won the 1937 Paris World Fair. In the decades since, it has become a timeless symbol of Scandinavian interior design. Each precious crystal bowl is first mouthblown. Then pieces are hand cut before going through several polishings at the Iittala Glass Factory. The 8 Inch Aalto bowl is perfect for serving dry foods like nuts and candies, home decor or as a gift.
Each and every vase in the Alvar Aalto Collection continues to be mouth blown at the Iittala factory and comes in a wide range of colors and sizes. The Collection is a staple of modern Scandinavian design and Iittala's most iconic series.
