Cheers! 2015 marks the 100th anniversary since Tapio Wirkkala’s birth, and this set of two beer glasses is the perfect commemoration and celebration of his life and works. In classic literature, Ultima Thule is used to reference the furthest possible place in the world. Designed in 1968, the Ultima Thule Glassware similarly references the icy cold reaches of Scandinavia. The unique melting texture of these pieces are achieved through specialized molds, the first of which were made by Wirkkala himself. Iittala Ultima Thule is still loved today by modern and traditional enthusiasts for its timeless quality and charm.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a Finn or fan of Finnish design that doesn’t recognize the iittala logo, designed by Timo Sarpaneva in 1956 and inspired by his “i-line” range. The logo serves as a symbol of quality craftsmanship, timeless design, and thoughtful functionality. Many collectors ... More iittala
From graphic art to banknotes, Finnish-born Tapio Wirkkala's portfolio is a quite arguably one of the most versatile. Still, he is most widely known for his wonderful work with glass. Texture plays a big role in Wirkkala's creative portfolio. His 1952 "Tapio" glassware experiments with air ... More Tapio Wirkkala

I bought these as a Christmas gift for my sister and her husband. They don't own any Iittala but recognized the great quality and "specialness" of this set. I add to my own Thule collection every year, they're pricey but I consider them heritage pieces.

So pleased! Swedish Mother-inLaw turned me on to this line of glassware. Although the first ones I ordered were smaller than expected, we will use them for a small cocktail or port. These glasses advertised as beer glasses. I will use them for beer and water for a casual meal. They came carefully wrapped and in perfect condition!
Good size, pleased with timely delivery.

Absolutely Gorgeous! (and handle with care)

These glasses are simply works of art. I unboxed them with a huge smile on my face, washed them, and placed them in my cabinet with pride. They're weighted quite pronouncedly towards the bottom where the glass is thickest. Trust me, get these and prepare yourself for compliments from guests. But one word of caution: handle with care, as there are only three little feet on the bottom of each glass offering support. So, you have to sit them down evenly, not at a tilt.

Best glasses I have ever had a drink from. They make me remember my mom who had 2 glasses for years and we could never figure out where they came from. Thankfully I found them years after she passed.
Great feel of the glass. Pretty.

I purchased 8 of these glasses in the last year and love their esthetic and size. They are elegant but also perfect for everyday use. I plan on purchasing other sizes to add to my collection.

I purchased this pair of Iittala beer glasses to give away as a gift. I couldn't help myself and had to take a peek into the package. The glasses are beautiful and much bigger than I thought they were. I may have to order a pair for myself also.
They are very attractive and a large size
