iittala
First founded as a glassworks company in 1881, iittala is now a leading company in modern Finnish design producing a range of dinnerware, glassware and art pieces. You’d be hard-pressed to find a Finn or fan of Finnish design that doesn’t recognize the iittala logo, designed by Timo Sarpaneva in 1956 and inspired by his “i-line” range. The logo serves as a symbol of quality craftsmanship, timeless design, and thoughtful functionality. Many collectors of iittala will leave the logo sticker on their iittala designs as a badge of authenticity. With award-winning artists and designers that bring their own unique vision to each and every piece, iittala has become the timeless face of modern design that we know today.
