Taking inspiration from the natural beauty of his native Finland, design legend Alvar Aalto created iconic home design pieces that are functional and sculptural. In the decades since winning the 1937 Paris World Fair, Aalto’s asymmetrical waves shape has become a timeless symbol of Scandinavian interior design. Each precious crystal vase is first mouthblown. Then pieces are hand cut before going through several polishings at the Iittala Glass Factory. The tall vase showcases long-stemmed bouquets while the cool white colour adds simple sophistication to any home design. Perfect gift idea.
Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto var fæddur í Finnlandi árið 1898. Hann er á meðal fremstu arkitekta og hönnuða síðustu aldar og naut mikillar velgengni á alþjóðavísu. Hann hannaði m.a. byggingar, textílvörur, glervörur ásamt því að mála og vinna við skúlptúra.
