Iittala Ultima Thule Anniversary Champagne Glasses (Set of 2)

I received a pair of the shorter, wider (on the rocks?) Iiitala Ultima Thule glasses as a gift from Finnish friends over 40 years ago. Love the melting ice design. Thanks so much for getting these to me so quickly. They were well-packed and arrived intact.

Such a special set! Great for gifts!

A perfect size for champagne and they won't tip as traditional champagne glasses can sometimes do. One morning when all the regular orange juice glasses were in the dishwasher, I discovered that the champagne glasses are just the right size for orange juice, and they fit comfortably in grandchildren's small hands.

I was fortunate enough to fly back here from Finland in Finnair's First Class. They served us champagne in these exact glasses. I was so impressed with the beauty and practicality of this design for champagne that I ordered a set for my son to celebrate his engagement. Now I am getting some for myself as well for New Year's Eve. Really great fit in your hand.

As another reviewer mentioned, these glasses feel so good in the hand. They are unlike my usual style, but I love the way they feel and they are just the right size and shape for champagne.
