Setting a Modern Thanksgiving Table with Dwell

Essence Red Wine Glass

The Essence family of glassware was designed by Zurich-based designer Alfredo Häberli for Iittala. With personal experience in the restaurant industry guiding the designer’s decisions, a perfect blend of form and function emerged. Each glass is formed to suit the scientific needs of the liquid it contains, but with the utmost attention to aesthetics. Notes the designer, “The idea for the glass range was to create a balance between tradition and modernity, between celebration and daily use, a balance with one and different uses.”
