Alvar Aalto Collection Pot guard
Design legend Alvar Aalto combined simple design with a craftsman’s expertise to create iconic home design pieces that are functional and sculptural. The pot guard with its signature Aalto waves shape brings both form and function to the kitchen. The handy wooden utensil keeps pot lids ajar, ensuring that food doesn’t get over-cooked. Its curved shape allows the pot guard to sit firmly between the pot and the lid. Made of birch wood, the pot guard is heat safe so fingers won’t get burned.

In 1936, Alvar Aalto’s series of glass vases won first prize in the 1936 Karhula-Iittala Glass Design Competition. Compared to the decorative objects of the time, the simple yet organic shape of this vase was a revolutionary statement. Inspired by waves (“aalto” in Finnish) in the water, the vase is a symbol of Finnish design and one of the most famous glass objects in the world.
Each and every vase in the Alvar Aalto Collection continues to be mouth blown at the Iittala factory and comes in a wide range of colors and sizes. The Collection is a staple of modern Scandinavian design and Iittala’s most iconic series. Additional items inspired by Aalto and created by Pentagon Design such as steel bowls, wooden platters and votives can also be found in the Alvar Aalto Collection.
