The VARDAGEN products are designed to turn differences into similarities. Like the eggcup. “We did it in a shape that it’s more like a very small dip bowl,” explains Ina. “So it’s also for Asian eating, you know the bowl where you put chili paste and other condiments.” Another bowl has just the right size and shape to be a rice bowl in Asia, but it can also be used as a side-salad or cereal bowl.

Reviews
Good valueAnonymous reviewerGood value, good size
TerribleAnonymous reviewerI bought 10 of these thinking they would be suitable to store rice, pasta, dried beans, lentils etc only to find that the lids are not sitting properly and are not airtight.This is therefore a very poor and pointless design. A waste of my time. Angry
Not airtightAnonymous reviewerWish I’d read the other reviews before purchasing. Why would you want a jar that isn’t airtight? Not enough room in my bathroom for cotton balls!
Biscuit barrelAnonymous reviewerGood size, clear and with wide enough top to get your hand in easily. Was concerned that the lid wasnt airtight but despite not fitting into the jar the biscuits haven't gone soft so assume the plastic ring is sufficient.
Lid does not fit wellAnonymous reviewerThe lid does not close very snuggly, disappointed
Great Biscuit jarAnonymous reviewerPlain and simple great jar for anything really smashing price
Big jar for a great priceAnonymous reviewerReally useful jar that is big enough to put your hand in to get contents out. Great value and looks fantastic
Pointless: Not an airtight container!Anonymous reviewerLid has no grip so just floats above the jar! Definitely not secure or airtight! Wasted purchase... 😢
I wouldn’t buy again.Anonymous reviewerPurchased for biscuits and the lid is shocking, what a waste of money
Not fit for purpose Anonymous reviewerCookie jar that won’t keep the cookies fresh as lid doesn’t fit properly ! Disappointing
Large Glass Storage JarAnonymous reviewerI really love the look and size of this storage jar. I have a few on the shelf now. However the lids are not well fitting and for this reason I have smashed three lids. I keep going in to see if you can buy a lid but you can’t, so I have to buy yet another jar. From a price point it’s not a problem but I find it so wasteful to keep buying yet another jar. Ikea do have lids separately for other jars strangely but not that one. I will not be buying any more for that reason. Hence my 4 star review. I would recommend from a useful and aesthetic view but be aware of the lid fitting.
Nice jars but lids not secureAnonymous reviewerLovely jars, used for a pick and mix at a wedding. Only issue is that lids are not secure, they just balance on jar. Therefore, one lid slid off and smashed when took wrapper off.
Great for pantryAnonymous reviewerGood height, quality & price
Lid doesn’t workAnonymous reviewerLid sits on top and falls off if jar is lifted so not good Seal and lid design needs fixing
Beautiful glass jarAnonymous reviewerBeautiful glass jar and lid. I have several of these and bought this to replace a broken one. I use for storage of laundry products in my utility room and they look great.
Great value storage jarAnonymous reviewerGreat value and good quality glass storage jar.
biscuit barrelAnonymous reviewerIdeal for holding biscuits and seeing how many you have !
VARDAGEN Jar with lid, clear glassAnonymous reviewerLovely storage jar, not thin glass. Just a shame that the seal doesn't make it airtight, but Ikea do mention this in the details. I use it to store laundry powder and looks good on the side.
Large coffee pod holderAnonymous reviewerGreat size for holding all my coffee pods and looks great in the kitchen
jarsAnonymous revieweri have several of these, they work in all rooms for all different things

Story
Designing for the tastes of people around the world
Do you sometimes cook dishes from other cultures? Then you’re part of an international trend called transculturalism. It basically means that global cooking and eating habits are a lot more similar than you may think. How can we cater for this trend? We designed the VARDAGEN series with products that can be used in multiple ways. In Swedish, VARDAGEN means “every day”, which is just how the products are meant to be used, no matter where you live.
“Consumers have access to cultural diversity in cooking and eating from all over the world,” explains Ina Tidbeck Sjöblom, who helped create the products. “They want to taste the best of all cultures, which means that it’s not only in Asia that we need eating products for sushi.”
Creating products for all our differences (and similarities)
Answering the global demand for durability
VARDAGEN is uniquely suited to the global market—catering to the different needs of eaters. One thing people all over the world seem to agree on is the importance of durability. “We know from all the studies and research we do that people don’t want to buy and throw away things, they want to buy something that lasts,” says Ina. That’s why VARDAGEN is made from durable materials, like glass, porcelain and stainless steel. That means, just like the name VARDAGEN suggests, they’ll be useful every day for many days to come.
