Today’s post was supposed to be about the beautifully understated color gray.  But then I took notice of all my Hostas in garden, with their wonderful variety of green leaves. Green is an interesting design color – too much or the wrong shade can be cloying.  Indeed, it takes a certain confidence to create an entire room in green.  But as a accent piece? Green can provide a pop of color and infuse the eternal feeling of spring in any decor.

3: Kastehelmi, Bowl 23 cl Apple Green from Iittala

Professor Oiva Toikka is one of the greatest names in Finnish glass. His imaginative, rich and bold glass art deviates from the streamlined aesthetic of Nordic design. The Kastehelmi range of glassware that Toikka originally designed in 1964 was also the outcome of a technical challenge. To celebrate Toikka’s 50th, Iittala reintroduced a selection of the most popular pieces in the range in year 2010. The idea of using droplets of glass as decoration came to Toikka when he was thinking of ways of covering the joint marks left on the surface of pressed glass pieces by the production process.
