Q & A
Celebrate good taste in beverage and design. In classic literature, Ultima Thule is used to reference the furthest possible place in the world. Designed in 1968, the Ultima Thule glassware similarly references the icy cold reaches of Scandinavia and the distinct expressive power of glass as a medium. The unique melting texture of these pieces are achieved through specialized molds, the first of which were made by Wirkkala himself. Iittala Ultima Thule is still loved today by modern and traditional enthusiasts for its timeless quality and charm. This set of one carafe and two tumblers is a wonderful gift for a lover of whiskey, wine, and more. The champagne parts of the box shimmer gold in the light, so you won't need to wrap over this beautiful packaging.

Even though I bought this for myself, this set is beautifully packaged for a gift. The carafe is exquisite and is something you'd want to keep on the table all the time. The glasses are perfect size for juice or wine.
