I have mentioned before my husbands op-shopping prowess. he's totally on form at the moment and found these classy glasses in his lunch hour yesterday. 5 hand blown iitalia (Finland) Ultima Thule glasses, designed by Tapio Wirkkala, according to my 70's decorative arts book. 50c each. so cool ice is not necessary!
apparently these come in different sizes but this is the only size i've ever come across-we have a singleton i found eons ago. terry is overjoyed at this significant addition to his drinks cabinet collection.
