Bowl

This bowl was designed by Jorma Vennola and made in 1979 by the Iittala Glassworks in Finland.

The bowl is made of clear colourless moulded glass. The design is called 'Muininki'.

Since the end of World War II, the national design organisations of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark have collaborated with joint exhibitions and prizes to promote modern functional design. This resulted in a characteristic 'Scandinavian Style' which was a major influence on world taste.
