Beautiful plates from the popular series Kastehelmi.

The Kastelhemi plate is designed by Oiva Toikka for Iittala. An incredibly beautiful range of different products that has become one of the brand's most popular. The glass bubbles that mimic glittering dew drops give each plate an appealing expression. The series consists of a variety of functional and decorative products to suit all table setting, both everyday and party.

Inspired by morning dewdrops, designer Oiva Toikka’s Kastehelmi collection for Iittala is iconic Finnish design. The glass plate’s small size makes it versatile enough to serve hors d’oeuvres, tapas, or dessert. A perfect gift idea. Bring contemporary sophistication to your table with linen’s refined warmth.

The technical challenges of glass making have always inspired Oiva Toikka. His experiments with drop patterns carved in the glass mold gave rise to a new texture for glass in the 1960s. A classic pattern - in production from 1964 to 1988 - is back to beautify your table. Concentric rings of glass dewdrops form the graceful pattern to enhance the appeal of any meal.
