    Finnish design legend, Oiva Toikka, was exploring ways to hide joint marks in glass when he invented the groundbreaking raised droplet design that makes Kastehelmi so distinct. Kastehelmi (Finnish for “dewdrop”) features circles of delicate glass bubbles created to resemble strings of dewdrops glistening under the morning sun.

    Each piece plays with light in a way that truly showcases the reflective beauty of the glass. Iittala’s beloved Kastehelmi collection offers a wide range of versatile, tactile pieces that are both functional and decorative.
