Light inspiration from the nature


Our beloved designer Oiva Toikka, famous for his lovely glass birds, created this mouth-blown glass lamp Kuukuna almost thirty years ago.
Then this soft mood lamp was quite modest, but this autumn it has grown a bit. The small Kuukuna measures now 220 x 190 x 200 mm, the big one 265 x 240 x 230 mm.
By the way, the Finnish word kuukuna means a mushroom, not an egg.
The lamps are in the Iittala shops at the end of this month.
