SOLD GLASS ARCHIVES : Scandinavian Glass 2 : Pair of Iittala (Finland) 'Ultima Thule' Candleholders designed by Tapio Wirkkala

 

SOLD

Designed by the legendary late Tapio Wirkkala for Iittala (Finland) in 1968 here is a pair of 'Ultima Thule' candleholders - I've had bowls and glasses but never candleholders so I'd suggest that these were pretty rare.  One still has the remains of the Iittala sticker and above it a slight manufacturing fault - not significant in my opinion and shown in the photograph of the sticker just above it.  These are fabulous pieces of retro Finnish glass from a great designer and an iconic range.  Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.

SIZE:  Height 1.5in/3.5cm     Diameter 2.75in/7cm      Weight 544g
