iittala Aalto 10" Finlandia Desert Vase

The long and slender silhouette of the iittala Aalto Finlandia Desert Vase plays magnificently with light, particularly at dawn and dusk. Made from pure glass and mouth-blown to perfection, the Finlandia Vase is both a masterful art work and a vessel for everyday life. Designer Alvar Aalto created objects without rigidly defined purposes so that they would be organically useful to the owners. Inspired by nature, the vase was created to mimic the curving coastline of Finland. Though the desert hue is contemporarily stylish, the iittala Aalto Finlandia vase is an heirloom that will be passed on for generations.
