Teema mug - white - 0.4l - 1005467 - Iittala

Teema mugs, created in 1952 by Kaj Franck for Iittala, are an icon of Scandinavian design, celebrated for their simplicity and timeless functionality. Embodying Franck's philosophy of essential objects stripped of all superfluity, these mugs are inspired by basic geometric shapes to offer a clean, universal aesthetic.

 Made from vitroporcelain, they are sturdy, versatile and suitable for everyday use, being dishwasher, microwave, oven and freezer safe.

Available in two main sizes - 0.3 L and 0.4 L - and in a variety of colors such as white, black, linen, pink or honey, Teema mugs stand out for their ergonomic design, with a comfortable handle and perfect balance for drinking coffee, tea or hot chocolate.

Their color palette allows for infinite combinations, whether in monochrome or in bold mixes, blending harmoniously with other Iittala pieces such as Kartio or Origo. The finish, particularly for shades such as pink inspired by the translucent glazes of the 1950s, adds a touch of character while remaining subtle.

Kaj Franck, nicknamed the “conscience of Finnish design”, conceived Teema (originally called Kilta) to democratize beauty through practical, accessible objects, mass-produced at reasonable prices. Present in many design museums, these mugs reflect his commitment to sustainable, anti-materialist, use-oriented design.
