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.
