The Taika ('magic' in Finnish) collection combines the motifs of designer Klaus Haapaniemi with the clean lines of the tableware designed by Heikki Orvola. The result is a collection that is as enchanting as it is functional, bringing Finnish folklore to life with a few traditional Japanese incursions.Â
The Taika collection is available in a range of colours. For the end of the year, Klaus Haapaaniemi has designed a new version - available only while stocks last!
The anniversary colour comes either as a single 0.4L mug - or as a set of two mugs in a beautiful gift box. The anniversary edition is also available in a "mini-mug" version - perfect for decorating your Christmas tree.
