The iconic “Savoy” vase was designed by Alvar Aalto for Iittala of Finland. Considered one of the most revered designers of the 20th century, Aalto created this vase as part of a 10-piece collection for a 1936 competition to determine what would be displayed in the Swedish Pavilion for the 1937 Exposition Universelle in Paris. Aalto won the competition, and his free-form objects became an instant success. This piece is white and clear encased glass, has an acid-etched stamp on the base, and retains its original sticker which dates it as late 20th century.
