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, 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 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 2 pc sparkling wine glassware set is perfect for bubbly beverages.
