iittala Ultima Thule Dinner Plate

I bought this plate for what it is like. The lovely and unique pattern and it is thicker and heavier than I expected. It is big enough for a serving dish , or as a decoration on the table or on the shelf.

I plan to use the plate as a small platter. I have the large platter and the bowl and have often wished that Iittala would make a smaller platter....and still do hope for that in the future, but this will work quite nicely in the meantime. A classic, quite beautiful design by the king of the wild, Tapio Wirkkala.

I was able to finally get one of this and absolutely happy with it. Its gorgeous look makes anything that's on the plate look delicious. Since we have a small dining table, we use salad plates as regular plates and this dinner plate as a big center plate for main dish or whole cake etc. as it is large enough to use as such. Beautiful product.

There is something to be said when a design lasts over the years. It is classic and beautiful. I am happy to add this to my set. Love the way the light reflects off the pattern. This design can be accented with any color on the table. It elevates dining to another level. Sit back, relax and enjoy a lovely meal served on this iconic design.

I now own a full selection of these timeless pieces. We use them on hot summer days on our terrace for a cool, icy look. But they're great year round. Great quality!
