Product details
In 1968, Tapio Wirkkala designed the Ultima Thule candlestick for Iittala. The relief glass evokes the melting patterns of Arctic glaciers, refracting light into delicate, irregular structures. Its compact form exudes a serene presence, emphasizing the materiality of the piece. Soft reflections appear in the candlelight, while the surface retains its sculptural quality. It can be placed on a table or used as a subtle accent on a sideboard. The design and execution are precise; the edge is reminiscent of frozen ice. A classic of Finnish glass design – understated yet sensual. In immaculate vintage condition.
