Espresso cup and saucer from the Iittala Taika collection.The word Taika in Finnish means magic. The Taika porcelain collection introduces you to a magical, distant fairytale world. The extremely decorative service is available in 3 colour versions - perfectly complementing each other as well as presenting together. Designed in 2007 by Klaus Haapaniemi, the design tells an enchanted story ... and in its details reveals elements of a fairy tale land.

The specific style of hand-drawn lines, evident in the animated cartoons of the time, is the basis of the illustrations in the Taika series and draws you into a sentimental journey to a distant land.The dishes in the Taika collection are made of high-quality porcelain and are dishwasher-, microwave-, oven- and freezer-safe.
