A set of crisp, clean dinnerware is a necessity for any modern home, and many would argue that iittala Teema is the best basic to invest in. An undisputed classic Scandinavian dinnerware, Teema is celebrated for its innovation, function, durability and beauty. Microwave, oven, freezer and dishwasher safe, it translates effortlessly from everyday dining to more formal gatherings. Designed by Kaj Franck in 1952, Teema remains a practical and versatile dinnerware that complements the entire range of iittala dinnerware and glassware, including the popular iittala Origo and iittala Kartio collections.

side plate or dessert plate
April 15, 2024
When purchasing my Teema dinnerware, I decided against the pre-set collection offered by iittala that included a larger side plate. I opted instead to choose open stock items, including this 17cm plate. This plate works for my family as a dessert plate; the one in the set would have been too large for us. This small plate is also handy to use as a ladle or spatula rest while cooking.

I purchased this as a gift. The recipient of the gift was so delighted to receive these plates. She had purchased your started kit of these dishes and did not have these plates. I was pleased with how easy it was to order and how quickly my order arrived. I will continue to order from your company.

Must have for Teema Dinnerware
March 26, 2022
The B&B plate is the perfect size for desserts, appetizers, and, of course, bread and butter!
I wish the 16 piece starter sets included this plate. This is a must have to add to your dinnerware set and to your table.
Pros
  • Perfect Plate Size
  • Versatile
Cons
  • White color is not an exact match

I've been adding different colors to my Teema collection, and the gray goes well with the other colors. As usual, high quality materials and a pleasing design.

Great color, great size

I love the black Teema dishes. It's a very deep black that adds some drama. I'm mixing and matching different colors and they look good together.

In Love!!!!!

A trip to Scandinavia is where I first saw iittala Teema, and after a couple of years of drooling over this dish ware, I started to purchase sets to replace my Dansk (also nice, but not as nice) dishware.
Like other reviewers, I can only rave. I am in love with all things Teema, Scandinavian, actually.
This dishware is the perfect example of scandi design aesthetic - clean, minimal, beautiful, functional, timeless.

I bought a couple of these for snacks and small portion, as well as a piece of toast or other small food items. The slanted sides are a big plus, and the plates look and feel very well made. Mine were made in Romania. Very pleased with these!

The first piece of Teema I purchased was a bread and butter plate. I wanted to see if I would like these brand of dishes and bought one plate to use at work. Loved it! It is beautiful and a handy size. That convinced me that I would order more.
Pros
  • Style and color - will easily match any other dishes you have Very well made.

perfect complement to the starter set
August 14, 2017
I bought 3 of the starter sets to have place settings for 12. Teema is my daily use dinnerware and for non-formal group gatherings. I missed not having a small plate for a morning bagel, or slice of toast, or just a cookie. The bread plate size is perfect for the times you need a smaller plate than the salad plate. I only bought a few to try out, but find that I use them all of the time, so I will certainly be buying some more soon.

Bread and butter plates aka nice salad plates
August 8, 2015
My husband was a potter and he threw beautiful dinner plates. I have been on the watch for bowls and salad plates to go with his black dinner plates. These black bread and butter plates are beautiful and go well with the dinner plates.
Pros
  • Well-made plates that are large enough to be used as salad plates. I like the slanted edge that helps keep salad fixings on the plate.
Cons
  • The price. I waited until a sale to buy these plates.

This size is very good for Korean dishes.
Usually, Koreans set several dishes for dinner.
It's not only good for bread, but also good for Korean dishes.
Pros
  • This color matches every kind of dishes...
Cons
  • But it was made out of Finland...

modern classic

these Kaj Franck plates dates back from 1952 and have been in production for more then half a century.
they are not only simply elegant but also durable, The rest of the market just tries to rip off this design with look-a-likes. I love the fact that there is always a possibility to upgrade with the latest color-ways! just mix and match.
Pros
  • simply elegant
  • durable
  • color-ways
