Put a chill in the air with Iittala's Ultima Thule glassware. Glimmering with clear, textured surfaces, the organic collection evokes wintry water images like cascading icicles or a frost-covered window. This set of two red wine glasses feature clean, precision-cut rims and elegantly curved sides on wide pedestal bases. Bubbles of glass cluster around the bottom of the bowls looking as if they might drip right off. Crafted in a wood mold, each 7-3/4-ounce glass has its own special markings that come out in the glass-blowing process. The well-balanced and substantial set makes a versatile addition to the dining room or bar. It also goes conveniently into the dishwasher-perfect for a busy entertainer. This classic Iittala design was created by Tapio Wirkkala in 1968 and named after the fabled arctic land. It is made in Finland. --Kara Karll A moment frozen in time. The iittala UT950071 Ultima Thule 7.8 oz. red wine glass represents thousands of hours spent perfecting the glass blowing technique required to produce this bubble/crackle effect. The forms imitate nature and gradually change as the molten glass burns the surface of the wooden molds. This glass is part of an extensive collection of other pieces just like it. Perfect for your home. Ready for use at any table. Dishwasher safe. Only from iittala.
