Q & A
Named Kastehelmi (dewdrop) after the bubbled detailing on the pressed glass, this collection was originally produced from 1964-1988 and brought back to celebrate Oiva Toikka's 50 year mark as a designer. The bubbled design wraps around the jar, including the base, while the lid is contrastingly smooth. The lid protects the contents as it has a rubber seal, but it is also safe for popping on and off the jar, as it is made of acrylic in a completely matching hue. Stash mints, brooches or sentimental keepsakes in this petite and dewy beauty.

What a wonderful color to spruce up your home for the holidays.
I tend to fill it with candies without the lid and use it for safe-keeping trinkets, too.
One for each purpose, naturally.

Red Color Lovely.

Note: This lid is acrylic NOT glass as it would appear. My mistake as I missed the acrylic description in the Specification box.
I ordered (4) Red Jars and the acrylic lid tops came slightly scuffed from the manufacturer. Therefore I suspect these lids will not wear well through the years. No, I would not order again, nor give as gifts because of this feature.
Pros
Red color lovely. Red acrylic color matches actual glass well.
Cons
Received acrylic lids slightly scuffed from manufacturer. My first clue item was not actual glass.
Note: Acrylic does not wear well compared to glass - especially with a lid that will get constant use. Disappointed as image appears as glass and glass would be preferred.

Pretty And So Worth The Price

Very small and pretty! The berry/wine color is just perfect. The perfect way to store your everyday jewelry on your nightstand, or flat cotton pads in your bathroom. Personally, I prop the bowl part up on its own lid and use it as a candy bowl in the living room.

The red of the Iittala Kastehelmi Cranberry Jar is wonderful with a votive candle in the center as a pattern radiates out with the light. Lid can join in with its own candle!
