Tapio Wirkkala

Legend Tapio Wirkkala’s portfolio spans from furniture and banknotes to glass. With his iconic Ultima Thule, the artist defied the rules of glassblowing. Inspired by ice and snow, Wirkkala spent nearly a thousand hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, to recreate this unique slice of Nordic nature. Featuring a rounded base sitting on three ice peaks that float above the surface, Ultima Thule brings a piece of arctic nature into any interior. A dynamic mix of art and function, the classic Finnish drinkware cemented its iconic status when Finnair began using it in first class. The Ultima Thule 4pc cordial set is perfect for after dinner liquors.

Frá árinu 1881 hefur Iittala lagt áherslu á að bæta daglegt líf með hagnýtum og fallegum hönnunarvörum. Það sem hófst sem lítil glerverksmiðja í samnefndu þorpi í Finnlandi hefur vaxið í alþjóðlegt hönnunarmerki sem hefur mótað norrænan lífsstíl um heim allan.

Kjarninn í hönnun Iittala er tímalaust útlit, endingargæði og notagildi. Hlutirnir eru gerðir til að endast, ekki aðeins í efni heldur líka í stíl – og eru ætlaðir til daglegrar notkunar, kynslóð fram af kynslóð.
