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 white wine glassware set creates stunning impact on any occasion.
