Iittala Kartta glass sculpture 150 x 320 mm, rain

Description

The Kartta glass sculpture, designed by Santtu Mustonen for Iittala, is like a gateway to another world – the name of the work, which is Finnish for “map”, refers to an imaginary map of another reality located in our own mind. The visually enticing art glass object exudes mystique and evokes boundless fascination whether as a single statement piece or as a part of a larger art collection.

The Kartta sculptures are made using a mould technology developed by Mustonen himself, in which digital manufacturing methods are combined with more traditional metalworking. The glass sculptures are made in Finland at the Iittala glass factory, where Iittala's master glass blowers bring Mustonen’s concept to life by blowing molten glass into a metal mould, which gives the works their distinctive grooved texture. Each Kartta glass sculpture has the artist’s signature engraved on it.

”Fast delivery. Ordered a hammock for my mothers birthday to be delivered at her adress. It’s in a somewhat rural area, but it was delivered at her door regardless. Great service.”

Maria Garcia C.

”I ordered a HAY side table that was on back order everywhere else. It was a few hundred crowns more at Finnish Design Shop, but shipped the next day and was delivered to my door two days later, which I think was worth the extra cost. It came well-packaged, protected and the item is in perfect condition. I’m happy and would shop here again.”
