The Story
*PLEASE NOTE: The color of Iittala's water green glass may vary. The variation in color is due to the manufacturing process, where the raw materials used to produce this color can result in a slightly bluer or greener shade at different production batches. The water green color continues to vary within defined variation limits. See secondary images to view variation possibilities between glassware sets. Consider this when adding to your collection.
Aino Aalto, wife of esteemed architect and glass designer Alvar Aalto, won the 1932 iittala-Karhula design competition in Finland and the gold prize at the Milan Triennale in 1936 for her functionalist glassware collection. Aino Aalto's namesake design is iittala's oldest product and stands for the epitome of mind-made design. Her glassware and dinnerware are the first glass products intentionally designed with everyday use in mind, yet adaptable for modern production methods. Developed in the true spirit of functionalism, Aino Aalto's glassware is so simple and timeless in form it is no surprise it still graces tables around the world 70 years later.
