Ultima Thule Set of 2 White Wine Glasses -16 cl - des. Tapio Wirkkala, 1968, for Iittala

These glasses are so wonderful - and indeed, their design is catalysed by a sense of wonder. Inspired by the melting ice in Lapland, designer Tapio Wirkkala spent thousands of hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, to recreate this unique slice of Nordic nature.

With the Ultima Thule, Wirkkala defied the rules of glassblowing. Characterised by a rounded base supported by three ice peaks that float above the surface, the groundbreaking Ultima Thule White Wine glassware creates stunning impact on any occasion and makes a great gift.

The matching Ultima Thule pitcher, red wine glass, rocks glass and highball glass are also all available from saltsmillshop.
