Senta

For his second series with Iittala, designer Alfredo Häberli again focused on the details. Senta is a collection of wine glasses with soft lines, gently-curved goblets that connect with wafer-thin, conical stems, which flow parallel into a flat base. The underside of the base has a facetted edge that catches the light and allows the glass to hover millimeters above the table. Robust enough for everyday use yet elegant enough for special occasions, Senta glasses are the favorite way to enjoy your wine.
