Tapio Wirkkala
Legend Tapio Wirkkala was the pioneer of modern Finnish industrial art. Internationally recognized for his glass designs, Wirkkala’s greatest inspiration always came from his native Finland. Wirkkala defied the rules of glassblowing with his iconic Ultima Thule collection. Inspired by ice and snow, Wirkkala spent nearly a thousand hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, to recreate a unique slice of Nordic nature. Characterised by a rounded base supported by three ice peaks that float above the surface, the groundbreaking Ultima Thule brings a piece of arctic nature into any interior. The clear Ultima Thule bowl is a stunning serving piece for nuts, candies, condiments or desserts. Striking gift.
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.
