Iittala Aino Aalto Glass Large, Apple Green (set of 2)

Aino Aalto's simple and timeless glassware collection was designed in 1932. It challenged her contemporaries to accept radically new lines and forms. Aino Aalto glassware will sit comfortably in any scenario from formal dinners to informal parties. A beauitful set of 2 glasses in fresh Apple green.

 This challenging design was inspired by the rings made when a stone hits the water and this simle design has been making rings ever since it's first launch in 1932. A true test of a timeless design. Available in other colours.

Aino Aalto, wife of esteemed architect and glass designer Alvar Aalto, won the 1932 iittala-Karhula design competition in Finland and the gold prize at the Milan Triennale in 1936 for her functionalist glassware collection. Aino Aalto’s namesake design is Iittala’s oldest product and stands for the epitome of mindmade design. Aino Aalto’s glassware and dinnerware are the first glass products intentionally designed with everyday use in mind, yet adaptable for modern production methods. Developed in the true spirit of functionalism, Aino Aalto’s glassware is so simple and timeless in form it is no surprise it still graces tables around the world 80 years later. The Aino Aalto pitcher has the same beautiful ribbed sides as the rest of the Aino Aalto glassware.
