Tapio Wirkkala

Multi-talented genius Tapio Wirkkala defied the rules of glassblowing with his iconic Ultima Thule collection. Inspired by ice, Wirkkala spent nearly a thousand hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, to recreate a unique slice of Nordic nature. Featuring a rounded base supported by three ice peaks that float above the surface, the groundbreaking Ultima Thule brings a piece of arctic nature to any interior. A dynamic mix of art and function, the classic Finnish drinkware cemented its iconic status when Finnair began using it in its first class service from Helsinki to New York. The Ultima Thule sparkling wine glassware set is perfect for bubbly beverages.

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.
