Q & A
The iittala Kartio glassware, designed by Kaj Franck in 1958, is the perfect marriage of color and form. Internationally appreciated for its durable, simple and practical shape and function, the ittala Kartio line was one of Franck's internationally best known works. Real beauty, Frank maintained, could only be found in the practicality of use.
MEASUREMENTS: 4-3/4" H x 3-1/2" Diameter (12 x 9 cm)
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
Born in Finland in the early 1900’s, designer Kaj Franck preferred deconstructed design and valued usability as it directly related to beauty. In removing excessive elements, his simplistic designs are comfortable and easily palatable for home use. Franck’s hauntingly beautiful Kartio Glass... More Kaj Franck
They are perfect compliments to your table setting when pairing with wine or cocktail glass as a small water glass. The turquoise/aqua color is stunning.

Glasses worth the shelf space
July 22, 2024
I have these glasses in two sizes, in various shades of blue and green. They are utilitarian yet beautiful . I use the smaller ones for wine and juice and the larger ones for everything else. And I love that they are stackable so they take up very little shelf space.

Gorgeous glasses, perfect size, well balanced. I mixed this color with the green and they look so good in combination. Our guests love them. Thanks for the quick delivery and exceptional packing.

These littala Kartio glasses are exceptional quality, with a perfect match of form to function. The only quirk is in the color names. I consider our "aqua" glasses to be more royal blue, while our "water green" glasses are actually aqua!
FinnStyle does an outstanding job of shipping these glasses very quickly with care-- all for the price of standard ground delivery.

Great everyday glass
January 16, 2021
In addition to timeless design this glass is great for everyday use would it be a good vodka-soda or a drink of seltzer. Water green color is one of the most neutral choices without being bland.
Glass is very durable and doesn’t scratch or stain by the dishwasher. This is an expected level of quality from iitala.

Seaglass On My Table
July 21, 2020
I've purchased these in different colors. Will leave the same review here. Great value!:
Firstly, the colors that these Kartio Medium Tumblers come in are so joyful! They remind me of seaglass, so I have a nice collection of colors. These will dot my table top with ocean colors to compliment the neutral palette of my Teema White Dinnerware. I keep a stack of them on the counter, all different colors. The volume is perfect portion for any fruit juice, or a quick shot of milk. I have used them for wine as well - Italian Style. The glass is crystal clear, and has remained so for years now. They are sturdy and feel solid in the hand.
Pros
Volume
Color
Sturdiness

A Design Classic
January 30, 2020
Deceptively simple and it is easy to question why you should spend big money for two simple drinking glass. But upon receiving them, it is clear why this design from the 1950s is enduring so well.
Pros
Good weight and stable. It offers solid "warm" feel especially around the rim and the bottom of the glass.
Cons
A little pricey so make sure to order interesting color.

Emerald and sea blue looked the same!
August 4, 2019
I got a pair of each as a present for a friend but when the came the colors of the glasses looked almost identical and not at all like your pictures. It’s weird. I love the glasses and got cobalt blue ones in Finland some years ago but the colors didn’t seem right now, the emerald green looked more like dark olive. Nd the sea blue was green not blue!

Beautiful and be careful
November 15, 2018
I have both gray and sea blue. They are gorgeous, solid, like all the other reviewers said. I love that. I’ve also had a number of my gray ones crack, and not because we dropped them. We likely received a bad batch, and we were sent new ones, but continue to have issues with the gray ones, even from the new ones. We do put them in the dishwasher in the top. I would like more because they are so beautiful, but I am hesitant because they are daily use glasses and more delicate than I expected.

Perfect Every Day glasses

After our niece borrowed our set of 10 ittala Kartio large tumblers for a bridal shower I realized we needed to add 4 more tumblers to our collection. Over the years we have purchased many different types of basic beverage glasses but these rise to the top.

The ittala Kartio tumbler's design meets my husband's demand for a steady bottom and my demand for a simple, utilitarian tumbler to serve a wide variety of beverages.

These glasses are expertly crafted. You can tell by the weight that they are supposed to withstand the test of time. And they are easy to hold -- my little one has never dropped his glass.

The perfect glass
July 30, 2017
Kartio is pure perfection! Elegant, modern, simple, sturdy but not clunky, and works for any and all type of use. Fancy dinner or glass of milk for kids. I finally replaced our odd collection of random glasses with a dozen of these. Now I feel like a grown-up. Then i ordered another dozen of the smaller size to complete the table setting.

It doesn't sound pretty, but Sand actually has a purple tinge to the thicker base that is hypnotizing. I have an assortment of Kartio colors, but Sand may be my favorite.

nice, very nice
December 23, 2015
Well, I'd love the original versions with the super thin glass, but lets face it these are more practical and sturdy.
The clear glass is nice, not boring, and mixes well to balance with the light blues and greens of other Kartio glasses you may set at the table.
Practically speaking, most folks seem to prefer to drink from light or clear glasses over the dark blues...
Pros
The design is great and they are reasonably strong, yet visually refined.
The size is not only good for juice but is also nice for simple wines at a casual gathering, instead of conventional stem wine glasses. They also work well for a whiskey or bourbon glass.
