Iittala Taika Sato tea towel, turquoise

The Taika Sato tea towel from Iittala is decorated with a design by Klaus Haapaniemi, inspired by harvest time and Haapaniemi’s own garden. The linen towel can be used to dry your hands or dishes in the kitchen or for letting dough or homemade pastries rise underneath.

In the Taika Sato series, introduced in 2024, Finnish artist Klaus Haapaniemi interprets garden fruits and vegetables in his distinctively rich and detailed style. The shapes and colors are intentionally abstract, leaving room for interpretation. In addition to his own garden, Haapaniemi drew inspiration for the illustrations from still-life art and botanical drawings, which adds a further layer of ambiguity to the designs. Instead of repetitive patterns, each item in the series is a unique individual, yet they fascinatingly complement each other. Named after two Finnish nouns, ‘magic’ and ‘harvest’, Taika Sato is sure to add a touch of harvest charm to all of your home.
