Kastehelmi Bowl - Apple Green Kaj Franck's Kartio glassware sheds all things unnecessary and superfluous. The result is a timeless aesthetic that stuns with pure geometric shapes embellished only by gentle colors— as Franck put it, "the only decoration needed." Each perfectly balanced piece is simple, yet durable enough for everyday use, infused with the feeling that it could not have been designed any other way.

Essence Red Wine Glass The Essence family of glassware was designed by Zurich-based designer Alfredo Häberli for Iittala. With personal experience in the restaurant industry guiding the designer’s decisions, a perfect blend of form and function emerged. Each glass is formed to suit the scientific needs of the liquid it contains, but with the utmost attention to aesthetics. Notes the designer, “The idea for the glass range was to create a balance between tradition and modernity, between celebration and daily use, a balance with one and different uses.”

Iittala Decanter The perfectly formed, mouth-blown shape of Citterio and Nguyen's Decanter was thoughtfully designed to enhance the qualities of its contents. The neck opens slightly, allowing wine to breathe and releasing the flavors and bouquet that have been locked inside it. The clean, clear design lets in light to ignite the brilliant color of wine. While it fits naturally with virtually any glassware, it's at its best when matched with Iittala's range of wine glasses.

Kastehelmi Cake Stand Professor Oiva Toikka's Kastehelmi, Finnish for "dewdrop," evolved from a technical challenge when Toikka started using glass droplets to cover joint marks left on the surface of pressed glass pieces. The result was a popular range of glassware decorated with beads of glass that glisten like dewdrops in the morning sun.
