Description

Overview
RIIHITIE A By Artek

Designer: Aino Marsio-Aalto

Manufacture year: 1937

Type: Ceramic plant pot

Riihitie Plant Pot A is available in several colours, the specific shades are sourced from bespoke ceramic tiles created for several Aalto buildings: blue glaze, white glaze, grey glaze, dark brown glaze.‎ Crafted in ceramic, this plant pot displays a curved, organic shape without corners and was originally created by Aino Aalto for the terrace of the home she and Alvar built on Helsinki’s Riihitie Road.‎ Reinterpreted in three sizes for indoor use, the plant pot embodies the Aaltos’ belief that even the smallest details are worthy of our time and attention.‎ Although the plant pot featured in the Artek presentation at the Paris World Fair in 1937, it never went into serial production.‎ The pot is handmade from ceramic, a material central to the Aalto’s building vocabulary.‎
