Description from the seller

Timo Sarpaneva (1926–2006) – Art Glass Bowl Model 3301 – Signed

Beautiful small art glass bowl designed by Timo Sarpaneva, model 3301.

The piece is executed in layered blue and clear glass, with a soft, organic teardrop form characteristic of Sarpaneva’s sculptural approach to glass. The contrast between the light icy blue interior and the deep cobalt blue rim creates a striking optical effect, enhanced by the thick polished base.

This model represents Sarpaneva’s refined mid-century Scandinavian design language, where simplicity meets subtle drama through colour and form.

Designer: Timo Sarpaneva
Manufacturer: Iittala
Model: 3301
Material: Layered blue and clear glass
Length: 10.3 cm
Condition: Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of age-related wear and light surface marks consistent with use. No cracks or restorations observed.

A fine collector’s piece of Finnish modern glass design.
