In modern literature, Ultima Thule is used to reference the furthest possible place in the world. Tapio Wirkkala’s Ultima Thule glassware similarly references the icy cold reaches of Scandinavia and the distinct expressive power of Finnish glass. Designed in 1968, Wirkkala’s Ultima Thule contributed to iittala’s national breakthrough and remains a distinctive iittala design.
| Ultima Thule has textured sides that reference the
northern icy terrain of Scandinavia. The unique texture of the glass is created by a
time-laboring technique that is created by the molten glass burning the surface of the
wooden moulds. |
