Limited, numbered edition Aalto 90 City Vase Collection

Celebrating the 90th anniversary of Alvar Aalto’s iconic form, the Aalto 90 City Vase collection reinterprets the design through the essence of six creative cities: Helsinki, Tokyo, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, New York and Berlin. Known for travelling for both business and pleasure, Alvar Aalto drew inspiration for his work from around the world.

Like cities, the Aalto vase evolves in time but is not bound by it, making each piece a unique expression of design heritage and contemporary creativity. All Aalto city vases have a purchase limit of 3 units per customer.

Helsinki Edition

Alvar Aalto’s iconic form lives on, ever-changing like the atmosphere of the Finnish seaside capital. The Aalto 90 Helsinki Vase in Light Grey glass captures the quiet strength of Finnish minimalism.

Amsterdam Edition

Drawing inspiration from the Netherlands’ capital, known for its historic canals and narrow houses, yet for its open-minded, human-scaled contemporary culture, the Aalto 90 Amsterdam vase combines timeless charm with forward thinking.

Copenhagen Edition

Timber tones, coppery rooftops at sunset, café-lit streets. Warm and welcoming, the Aalto 90 Copenhagen Vase’s Brown glass echoes the city’s love of natural materials and convivial living.

Berlin Edition

A city where day and night easily change places. A design that engages in a conversation between traditional craftsmanship and contemporary Zeitgeist. In the Aalto 90 Berlin vase, ultramarine blue glass glows in iridescent rainbow colours, reminiscent of the creative rhythm of the ever-pulsing German capital, admired for its capacity to reinvent itself.

Tokyo Edition

An icon where contemporary touches engage with the heritage of glassmaking. A capital with a hyper-modern cityscape, yet a shire of traditions.

The Aalto 90 Tokyo Vases are exclusively available in Japan from August 2026.

Handmade in Finland

The Aalto 90 City vases are mouth-blown in the Iittala Glass Factory in Iittala, Finland. In the skilled hands of the artisans, each vase becomes a one-of-a-kind piece.

Art meets Aalto

For the Aalto 90 anniversary year, Iittala invites contemporary artists to reinterpret the iconic Aalto vase through their own creative lens.

The first collaboration features Helsinki-based visual artist Irene Suosalo, known for her distinctive animation and video art that blend retro aesthetics with experimental techniques. Named Finland’s Illustrator of the Year in 2022, Suosalo has worked with global brands such as Bottega Veneta, Burberry, The New York Times and Bloomberg, and her work has been exhibited widely across Europe.

As a part of the anniversary collaboration, Suosalo has interpreted the City Vases through her art, bringing the iconic form into the digital age. Each city has it’s unique video piece, inspired by the glowing Lystre effect and the creative energy of each city. The movement captures the essence of molten glass, with magma-like pulsation refined with Suosalo’s signature glitches and retro aestethic.
