essence universal glass 2 pack
by Alfredo Haberli from Iittala
essence universal glass 2 pack
Design Alfredo Haberli, 2001
lead free glass
Made in Finland by Iittala
Radically simple. Alfredo Haberli suggested a new series of glassware with an essential idea: have as few glasses as possible, while still being able to serve a full range of fine wines.
The Essence glasses have become a true demonstration of thoughtful design. Standing next to each other, they create a wonderful sense of balance. This is due to the fact that the stem and base of each glass are the same size, while the tumblers share similar proportions. They are easy to grasp and handle, and we suspect they make fine wines even more enjoyable.
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Alfredo Haberli is an internationally established designer based in Zurich. In his designs, Haberli manages to unite tradition with innovation, joy and energy. His upbringing in a family of hoteliers and restaurant people has inspired and showed him the way in his work. Award winning design: iF Design Award 2002 (Germany), Excellent Swedish Design Award (Utmarkt svensk form) 2001 (Sweden), Zakka of The Year 2001 (Japan).
The 2 piece Essence universal glass set epitomizes versatility with its contemporary silhouette making it perfect for serving a vast assortment of drinks including smoothies, sodas, juices and beers at any table setting. Combines with any Essence glassware or other Iittala drinkware.
