Tapio Wirkkala
Legend Tapio Wirkkala was the pioneer of modern Finnish industrial art. His internationally renowned glass designs were often inspired by the raw beauty of his native Finland. Determined to recreate an ice-covered Finnish island where the sun never sets, Wirkkala spent nearly a thousand hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, defying the rules of glassblowing. The Ultima Thule plate pays homage to the iconic design with an intricate pattern that brings a slice of Nordic nature that suits any table setting. Perfect for sides and dessert. Combines beautifully with other pieces in the collection.
Since 1881, Iittala has been dedicated to inspiring better living. What began as a glass factory in a small village in Iittala, Finland has grown into an internationally known brand that has played a decisive role in defining the Nordic way of life.
The cornerstones of Iittala’s design are timeless aesthetics, high quality and functionality. We believe people should have the right to expect their design items to last a lifetime and that Iittala items never go out of style. Our designs are made to be used, day in and day out, for generations to come.
