Description from the seller
Hello
Today I have the pleasure of presenting to you on this auction:
Glass vase Avena, designed in the 1960s by the eminent Finnish architect and designer Tapio Wirkkala for the iconic Iittala manufactory.
It is an icon of Scandinavian design in the Mid-Century Modern (MCM) style.
The design is characterized by an organic, deep texture of artistic glass reminiscent of cracked ice or tree bark.
The transparent, substantial form elegantly disperses and refracts light.
The vase bears the signature of Tapio Wirkkala.
Good condition.
Attention!!! the vase has a minor imperfection in the form of damage to the rim.
When bidding, please take this into account.
