Here is the translation of only the German parts, preserving the original formatting: Aino Aalto Glass Transparent

The Finnish designer Aino Aalto submitted the collection of the same name over eighty years ago in a tender from the Iittala glassworks and was awarded the contract. Her design for the Aino Aalto collection by Iittala exemplifies the criteria and rules of Scandinavian design. The rules include connection to nature and functionality. The design for the classic collection is inspired by ripple rings created by throwing small stones into water. The refined design of the Aino Aalto collection by Iittala is space-saving as it allowed the glasses to be stacked – revolutionary at the time. To this day, the Aino Aalto collection by Iittala continues to be produced, with interruptions, and delights with its timeless design.
