Teema is a range of 21st century design objects created by Kaj Franck in the 1950s. They represent the essential design thought at the heart of the Iittala collection. The idea is simple — find the object's simplest form so it can fulfill more functions to be combined in the right way for each occasion. Designed to serve every need from preparing to serving, Teema Dinnerware is offered in a range of plates, cups and bowls with hand-applied colors from soft to bold.

Kaj Franck
(1911-1989) Born in Vyborg, Finland. Kaj Franck is described as the conscience of Finnish design. He removed everything excessive in his designs, leaving only the essentials. Kaj Franck has been awarded a large number of Finnish and international awards and prizes and his work has been displayed at a range of design museums around the world. Some of his most famous objects are the Teema tableware and the glass series Kartio.
Based on bold, geometric forms, the Teema Dinnerware Collection is part of a larger thought-through system where everything fits with everything. Every new design object complements the ones that come before and after, in design as well as color, to offer the highest quality combinable, multi-purpose tools for an active and modern life.
