Iittala have been involved with the manufacture of the Aalto vase since its original design and, for more than 75 years, have been integral to production of one of Finland's best known designs. The original factory was created in the village of Iittala in Southern Finland in 1881. The site was chosen because of close proximity to essential resources such as wood and sand. In the 75 years since it started producing the Aalto vase the factory has held to its traditions of excellence and skill. All items are handmade by professional glass workers. Each individual vase requires the skills of seven different glassblowers and sixteen hours of production. A vase is produced in twelve stages, with quality controlled throughout the process to guarantee a beautiful finished product. Every single vase is unique and can be easily identified as the work of a master glass worker.
