24h+mug

24h mug

Clean lines and carefully finished details are characteristic of the tableware in the 24h series designed by Heikki Orvola. The tableware, originally designed for the artist's own use, found its way into Arabia's serial production in 1996. A series of unassuming high quality, compatible with changing food trends and cultures. The clear, simple shapes remain pleasing to the eye from one year to the next and their unassuming forms impart practicality. The series, which was awarded the Design Plus prize, was named after its purpose: 24h - tableware pieces for every hour of the day.

Finnish design duo Helorinne and Kallio designed the Tuokio pattern for the 24h series. The pattern was inspired by Arabia's decorative traditions stretching back over 140 years, strong ceramic expertise and an ability to apply knowledge while respecting the old and simultaneously creating something new. The design of the Tuokio pattern was based on the clear lines of the 24h series designed by Heikki Orvola. The word 'tuokio' ('moment' in Finnish) describes the intensity of time - a special moment where memories are created. It feels hand-painted, with a rhythm to the pattern where the brush strokes - the feel of the artist's work - are strongly present. The end result is an interesting and modern pattern that fits well within today's diverse place settings.
