Taika by Klaus Haapaniemi Enchanted Forest Animals Mug iittala

This stunning iittala mug showcases the enchanting world of Klaus Haapaniemi’s beloved Taika collection, wrapped in deep midnight blue and brought to life with richly detailed characters. From elegant owls perched among ornate, curling branches to the graceful red-tailed fox-like creature standing beneath stylized trees, every inch of this mug is covered in vibrant, folklore-inspired artwork that feels both magical and modern. The colors—crisp whites, luminous blues, warm golds, and fiery reds—create a mesmerizing contrast against the bold dark background, giving the design remarkable depth and presence.

Crafted with Iittala’s renowned quality, the mug features a clean white interior and a smooth, comfortable handle that makes everyday use a pleasure. The base displays the official Iittala mark along with functional details confirming that it is dishwasher, microwave, freezer, and oven-to-table safe, making it as practical as it is beautiful. The artwork flows continuously around the mug, offering a new scene with every turn and inviting the eye to linger on its intricate shapes and patterns.

This Taika piece is a standout addition for collectors of Scandinavian design, fans of Haapaniemi’s whimsical style, or anyone looking to elevate their morning ritual with something extraordinary. Bold, imaginative, and wonderfully expressive, it brings a touch of fantasy to every sip.
