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 stemless red wine glass 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

thicker glass
April 8, 2014
I was replacing glasses that had been broken from a larger set that I purchased years ago. the new ones look the same and are great...my only comment is that the walls of the glass especially around the edge that you drink from are much thicker than the original ones that I bought years ago. the originals were very thin and fine....the new ones are much thicker...about twice as thick which makes them feel a little less elegant.

I really like these glasses. They have a nice, substantial weight and look great with my Iitala dishes. They are smaller than many wine glasses, but I think that adds to their charm.

love these glasses
Pros
fast shipping. Always pleased with response when communicating. I keep checking out what's new and specials. I love this store. I have been shopping here for years.
Cons
one glass was chipped but the response to replace the glass was fast and very compliant. This has never happened before. I have ordered many items and this is the first time I had to report a broken item. Very pleased with the response.

I think the more casual & sophisticated shape is a good change. No reason wine glasses need to have stems...
