Taika is one of Iittala's best-loved and richest collections. It was born of the fertile imagination of Klaus Haapaniemi, whose images draw on a mixture of Finnish folklore, Slavic animation and Japanese engravings.
Initially available as tableware, Iittala now offers them in the form of household linen, duvet covers and towels.

Klaus Haapaniemi

Their design approach is influenced by nature, Finnish folklore and traditional decorative arts with a modern twist. Inspiration comes from a rich selection of cultural references including the worlds of art, ballet, music and storytelling. Klaus Haapaniemi’s design experience includes many major brands including Levi’s, Diesel and Dolce & Gabbana. He has been recognized as one of the most important rising stars in design by the WGSN’s trend forecast. In 2015, Klaus Haapaniemi designed the piece Cunning Little Vixen for the Finnish National Opera which inspired the Tanssi collection for Iittala. His sense of whimsy and magic is illustrated in Iittala’s classic Taika series.
