Sparkling like the sea, iittala’s beautiful translucent Light Blue classic Aalto vase mimics the Finnish coastline in both color and in shape. An original hue for 2011, this 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. Finnish for "wave," Aalto created an original glass vase whose whimsical freeform design 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.
