Timo Sarpaneva (1926-2006) was a Finnish designer and sculptor, who rose to great international fame in the 1950s for his ability to transform everyday objects into art. Sarpaneva was a master of many materials, but it was glass that captured his imagination the most due to how it interacted with light. Notably, it was Sarpaneva, who designed the iconic Iittala logo. This stunning Rare piece is signed on the underside and is in very good pre-loved condition. No outstanding flaws seen. No cracks, chips, or deep scratches. Scuff and minuscule light scratches and natural tiny air bubbles seen under close inspection but does not deter from its beauty. Please see Item Specifics.
