Add
The classic Aalto vase has become one of the most famous pieces of glass in history. Since first winning an award for design at the 1937 Paris World’s Fair, the Aalto vase has received numerous awards and influenced many others as it has become a truly iconic piece of art. Today, Iittala’s talented glass-blowers continue to reproduce Aalto’s timeless creation. The bonus is that they now are available in a wide variety of colors and sizes so you’ll be able to find one that fits your style or the personality of the lucky recipient you’re giving it to this holiday season.
