iittala Essence Glassware

Designer: Alfred Häberli, 2001
Manufacturer: iittala, Finland

Essence introduced glassware to a new, idea-oriented design: as few glasses as possible for a full range of fine wines. Side by side they express a remarkable sense of balance, due to the stem and base being of the same size. Sensually pleasing to grasp and handle, Essence makes fine wines even more enjoyable.
