Here is a pair of fantastic quality Finnish blue glass tumblers designed in 1958 by Kaj Franck for Iittala (marked on the bases).

Designed in 1957 by the legendary late Timo Sarpaneva here is a brilliant boxed set of 6 'Tsaikka' mould blown-metal mounted glasses.

In their original plastic packaging and still bearing their 'Made in Finland I' red stickers these would be a fabulous addition to any retro Scandinavian glass collection. Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 3.25in/8cm Weight (inc. packaging) 745g |
