IITTALA TAIKA DINNERWARE - PASTA BOWL
Pattern by Klaus Haapaniemi 2007
Form by Heikki Orvola
Taika means ‘magic’ in Finnish, and Klaus Haapaniemi wants his illustrations to inspire your own imagination and storytelling. Combined with other essential design objects of the Iittala collection, Taika gives a magic touch to everyday life.
The strong decorative style of the Taika series may surprise those who are used to seeing Iittala representing traditional Nordic functionality and simple design forms. To counterbalance the exuberance of the decoration, the form adopted for the pieces in the Taika series is that of Heikki Orvola's Aika with its classic, clean lines, which was launched 2006.
IMPORTANT PURCHASING NOTE:
Taika espresso and cappuccino/coffee cups and saucers are shown as set in photos but are priced and sold as separate products. Please see Related Items for corresponding piece.

PORCELAIN:
Iittala china is made out of vitro porcelain, which is a modern, durable porcelain with a slightly off-white shade. All Iittala china is oven, microwave and freezer safe. Do not, however, take a dish straight from the oven and put it into a cold, wet surface or put it on steel. Do not put a dish straight into a hot oven from the freezer. A dish filled with liquid is not freezer safe, as liquid expands when it freezes. Do not use the dish if it has a crack because in a sudden temperature change the dish can break. And finally if you cook frozen food in the microwave it should be cooked in low-heat.
