Inspired by the melting ice in Lapland, the Ultima Thule is design legend Tapio Wirkkala’s most famous work. Wirkkala originally created the surface of Ultima Thule in the 1960s after carving into a graphic mold. Ultima Thule is an exclusive design which reflects the thousands of hours spent perfecting the glass-blowing technique required to produce the effect.  Available in in different variations.

Multi-talented genius Tapio Wirkkala was considered the pioneer of modern Finnish industrial art. Wirkkala defied the rules of glassblowing with his iconic Ultima Thule collection. Inspired by ice and snow, Wirkkala spent nearly a thousand hours with the glassblowers at the Iittala Glass Factory, to recreate this unique slice of Nordic nature. Featuring a rounded base supported by three ice peaks that float above the surface, the groundbreaking Ultima Thule brings a piece of arctic nature into any interior.

What once happened in a glassworks, in the town of Iittala in Finland, today celebrates generations of basic buildings that enrich our lives. Even today, they believe that objects must be authentic, that they must offer the possibility of combining, multi-purpose, and long-term design that inspires individual use and expression. The progressive philosophy of Finnish design heroes such as Kaj Franck and Alvar Aalto still gives the brand the will to remain relevant. At Iittala, they not only celebrate the beauty of the objects, but also believe in a design that will never be discarded.
