What started as a glass factory in Iittala, Finland, today celebrates generations of essential objects that are made to enrich people’s everyday lives. We believe objects should be distinctive, combinable and multi-functional, with lasting design that inspires individual use and expression.

The progressive philosophy of Iittala's design heroes, Kaj Franck and Alvar Aalto, still inspires them to keep Iittala forever relevant. Iittala doesn't just create beautiful objects. They believe in timeless design that will never be thrown away.
