Clearly, an Italian interpretation of the iconic Finnish Ultima Thule design for Iitala by Tapio Wirrkala in 1968 but this set brings with it its own design nuances. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of resting on melting icicles like that of the Ultima Thule, each piece of this set rests on polished-angle 'ice cubes' and resting centrally within the base of each ice cube, is a single bubble.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis set is not only iconic with its tactile Modernist surface which create elegant refractions when in the path of light but it also has the ability to colour change. The colour-changing ability comes from Neodymium, an element incorporated into the glass during the crafting process. Under daylight, the Neodymium glass presents a pale lilac colour however, under indoor and fluorescent lighting, the element becomes a pale blue. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe contemporary statement design is stylistically timeless and very functional, whether as dessert dishes or cocktail tumblers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[size]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: \n\u003cp\u003eJorum Height c. 4.3\" \/ 11 cm.
