Iittala Essence

ESSENCE

Alfredo Häberli suunnitteli Essence-lasiston yksinkertainen ajatus mielessään: vain muutama lasi, joista voi tarjoilla täyden valikoiman erilaisia viinejä. Muotoilultaan Essence on tunnistettava kulmikkaine muotoineen ja lukuun ottamatta myöhemmin suunniteltuja olut- ja coctaillaseja, kaikkien sarjaan kuuluvien lasien jalat ovat samankorkuisia. Essence on voittanut useita arvostettuja muotoilualan palkintoja, kuten iF ja Les Découvertes -palkinnot.

Essence cocktail-lasit sopivat erinomaisesti suurille cocktaileille ja mocktaileille. Lasissa on hyvin tilaa jäälle, koristehedelmille ja juomalle. Juhlien päätyttyä, lyhyemmän varren ansiosta, lasi mahtuu hyvin astianpesukoneeseen. Osta kahden tai neljän lasin pakkaus itsellesi tai lahjaksi.
