The "Tavastia" digestif glasses by Tapio Wirkkala for Iittala are a prime example of the elegant understatement of Finnish modernism of the 1970s. With their finely curved bowl and distinctive, sculptural base, they appear both light and expressive – a design that harmoniously combines functionality and timeless aesthetics.

Made of high-quality clear glass, the glasses are comfortable to hold and are ideal for aquavit, liqueur, grappa, or other digestifs. Tapio Wirkkala masterfully combined Scandinavian simplicity with organic forms. This makes the Tavastia digestif glasses not only stylish companions for special moments of enjoyment, but also coveted design classics for lovers of Finnish glass art.
