Retro Mod Kaj Franck Kartio Beverage Set
Timeless Minimalist Nordic style by Kaj Franck (b.1911 d.1989) This set is a new production of an ever-popular late 1950’s design called Kartio. Reproduced in this color (moss green) by Iittala, Finland in 2009. The simple, practical, timeless and alluring style of the Kartio line has spanned over 50 years. The Kartio range is “One of the purest realisations of Kaj Franck’s thinking – a perfect balance between the material and the geometric form. Simple, yet durable enough for everyday use, the range features glasses and a carafe, all available in clear glass, as well as a variety of colours. A legendary design beyond trends” — Iittala.
In transparent moss green, a favorite color of the mid-20th century. Pleasing earthy color goes well with most schemes. Great for retro mod decor, organic earthy decor, minimalist decor…goes well with most decors. Offered as a set of seven including six 7.5 ounce Kartio tumblers and one Kartio 1-quart carafe. Dishwasher safe. Durable enough for everyday use. Perfect for the bar, table, tray. Brand new in original packaging.[color-box]More About Scandinavian Glass[/color-box]
