Iittala vase - name of design? ... ID = Arnica by Tapio Wirkkala
I have recently picked up this vase from the local fleamarket (snip), I am fairly positive it is a Littala vase by Timo Sarpaneva although it is not marked and has had the Littala sticker removed. Could anyone positively ID it for me and tell me what the design range name is?

Hi - yes, it's iittala (no "L"!). I'm pretty sure the design is Arnica by Tapio Wirkkala, which comes in a tall version (18cm) and squatter one (14cm).

Fi's correct - it's definitely called Arnica and by Tapio Wirkkala (not Timo Sarpaneva) - here's mine (the taller version) http://www.flickr.com/photos/pips-trip/4508346936/
