Q & A
Iittala has taken the classic clear Aalto vase and added just a hint of green color to it. The result is the water green color wave that is new for 2010. This unique color gives the vase a vintage look of antique glass.For more than 70 years, the Aalto vase, designed by Finnish architect and furniture designer Alvar Aalto, has been one of the most famous pieces of glass in history. Aalto, Finnish for “wave” created an original glass vase with wavy lines and whimsical freeform design that, to many, suggests the undulating profile of a Finnish lake. Aalto’s vase continues to win awards, has residency in famous museums, and is recognized and appreciated worldwide.

I love Water Green one the best among my Aalto vases. White flowers in it look more elegant white than in a clear vase. It goes well with yellow flowers (like daffodils) or purple flowers as well. I think medium size (4-3/4) is handy and economic size to decorate with flowers. But I still think large size (6-1/4") is good for branches or long stem flowers.

Great Vase I Bought To Replace One That Disappeared. Only Drawback Was Small Size. I Thought The Size Listed Was Height, Not Rough Diameter.

This vase is even more beautiful in person than I imagined - when you look at it from the side, it looks nearly colorless, but the color comes out beautifully on the edges at the top. A wonderful addition to my Iittala collection and I will definitely be buying more items in this color in the future.
