Q & A
iittala Tapio was designed by Tapio Wirkkala in 1952, and received the Grand Prix Award at the Milan Triennale in 1954. With an innovative design that proudly bears the artist's own moniker, Tapio Wirkkala masterfully suspends a single air bubble inside the weighted stem of each glass.

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
From graphic art to banknotes, Finnish-born Tapio Wirkkala's portfolio is a quite arguably one of the most versatile. Still, he is most widely known for his wonderful work with glass. Texture plays a big role in Wirkkala's creative portfolio. His 1952 "Tapio" glassware experiments with air ... More Tapio Wirkkala

Beautiful Wine Glass

I bought these for my sister for Christmas and was lucky enough to share some wine with her this year. I love the feel and the weight of these glasses.

We have wanted glasses from the Tapio line for literally decades, and with the Black Friday sale, the time was right. The glasses are beautiful, but pay attention to their capacity in ounces. They are smaller than the typical American sizes. Love the biogradeable packaging!

We have had Tapio glasses for years and needed to replace two. They are wonderful and we'll never even consider another wine glass.

Iitala Tapio red wine glasses
March 25, 2021
Love my Tapio red wine glasses. I find all iitala to be of good quality and smart looking!
Pros
Nice size for your hand and they hold a lovely serving of wine unlike those huge awkward balloon glasses that hold a disgusting amount.
Cons
Pricey so shop the sales if possible.

Excellent customer service - good packing job for fragile glasses

I'd received these glasses from the Amazon distributor for Finnstyle, but there were not adequately packed and arrived all broken. Since Amazon did not sufficiently reimburse us, the Finnstyle store offered to resend directly from their own warehouse and gave us a 10% discount to make up for the difference. They also stated they'd look into the issue and would consider how to address the packing by the Amazon distributor. They were very responsive and, I felt, took extra steps to ensure I was not inconvenienced. The replacement glasses were very well packed are are beautiful. I'll continue to be a repeat customer.

These - my favorite wine glasses - arrived broken, but FinnStyle reshipped then immediately. No hassle, very polite.

I love the Tapio Design--sleek, mid-century. But so practical for the 21st---dishwasher safe (with care) and stable for deck/ lake living

So beautiful...and unique

The Itittala Tapio red wine glasses are beautiful and pure Finn looking.....and they are versatile for many types of drinks. The only reason they didnt receive five stars is because the "bowl" is much smaller than a traditional stem red wine glass. I went to the largest Tapio available...and they are beautiful.
Pros
Beautiful, versatile and veryFinn looking....
Cons
Smaller than expected....

I previously bought the little Tapio cordial glasses on sale. I liked their look very much. When I broke two of my wine glasses (of another company and design) recently, I decided to replace them with two Tapios. They are beautiful to look at and feel wonderful in the hand.

Beautiful wine glass!

Took advantage of the Iittala sale, and ordered 4 Tapio red wine glasses. They just arrived safely (great packing job Finnstyle.) I love the solid design of these glasses. These will not get knocked over. The design is unique and classic. If you're a fan of midcentury Scandinavian design, this is a must-have.
Pros
The air bubble in the stem is beautiful.
Cons
This is not really a "dislike" but I will note that this is not a huge wine glass compared to some of the goblets being sold today. Rather than buy white and red wine glasses, I'm choosing to buy only the red.

These glasses are a true design classic. Not only do they look great, but feel good in the hand and are a pleasure to ouse.
