Vintage Glass from Finland!

We just came across some great vintage Finnish Glass by

Tapio Wirkkala

We have 12 Highball glasses in the Ultima Thule pattern ( a Classic) in there original boxes from the 60's. 12 Dessert Bowls in the the same pattern also with boxes and a sugar and creamer set. Tapio Wirkkala was a master of Scandinavian design - glassware for iittala , furniture, flatware any countless other beautiful items.

Also another great vintage design - Flora Pattern glassware by

Oiva Toikka

I found a set of Dessert bowls. Oiva Toikka is well known for his work with iittala as well. You may have seen his wonderful glass birds!
Also very interesting children's rocking birds!



If you like Scandinavian glass and are in town - come on down and check it out at the MADE shop!
