Iittala Aalto Finlandia Vase 25.5 cm, Emerald

The Aalto vase has become one of the world’s most famous glass objects, deservedly synonymous with Finnish glass art and with Iittala. Alvar Aalto created the Aalto vase in various shapes, sizes and colours for Iittala for the World Fair in Paris in 1937. It is exhibited in some of the world’s most influential design museums. The fluid shapes are said to derive from the Finnish landscape and its lakes. This vase is also in a stunning shade of pink or classic clear, which will look great with any flora and fauna arrangements or simply standing alone.  Due to the tall shape of the Finlandia vase and the way the glass folds, it is a great shape for tall flowers to sit beautifully displated within it.The vases are hand-blown using traditional techniques, and may therefore contain tiny bubbles. Hand wash only. 

This is the New stunning Emerald colour.
