Q & A
Decorative artist and glass designer Goran Höngell set a trend for minimalist glass design in 1950s with the introduction of his Aarne glassware collection. It was awarded a gold medal at the esteemed Milan Triennale of 1954; selected as the symbol of the iittala glassworks for its 100th anniversary in 1981; and is featured in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.Aarne remains one of the most classic shapes in the world of tabletop design. The distinguishing features of the lead-free crystal Aarne double old fashioned (lowball) are its thick base and tall, thin delicate lines that elegantly flare outward.

First founded as a glassworks company in 1881, iittala is now a leading company in modern Finnish design producing a range of dinnerware, glassware and art pieces. You’d be hard-pressed to find a Finn or fan of Finnish design that doesn’t recognize the iittala logo, designed by Timo Sarpane... More iittala
These glasses are beautiful, sleek, and they feel great in the hand. A nice weight on the bottom and the flare makes them feel secure. I like to use them as wine glasses as well as for cocktails.

The Aarne Double Old Fashioned glasses Set of Two are the newest addition to my iittala glassware and dinnerware collection. I am so pleased with them. Perfect weight in the hand, and look great on my sideboard.

A stemless wine glass with more appropriate capacity.

Now that iitala has stopped making its stemless wine glass in its award-winning Aarne series, the Old Fashioned glass is an excellent alternative, with more appropriate capacity than the original.
