Essence tumblers, measuring 35 cl in capacity and sold in a set of two, are a perfect addition to Iittala’s Essence glass collection. Designed by Alfredo Häberli, the idea of Essence glassware collection is to simplify the wide range of wine and beer glasses into a few essential, versatile glasses. The stems and bases of the glasses are identical, creating a unique sense of balance and thoughtful functionalism. The Essence collection has won the iF Design Award and Les Découvertes Award.
