description Iittala Nappula Vase Overview
The Iittala Nappula vase is a Nordic plant vessel designed by Swedish designer Matti Klenell for the Finnish company Iittala. Its rounded, flowing body and pronounced stem derive from the unusual wide feet of a table Klenell saw at the Nuutajärvi Glass Museum. The Nappula form first appeared in candleholders and was later adapted for plant pots and vases, which are made in several colors and sizes.
