Flaming red anniversary celebration

Designer Harri Koskinen is currently one of Finland’s most international designers. Koskinen has worked at the Iittala glass factory and made several popular objects for them, so he knows their glass inside and out. For the anniversary year, Koskinen has designed a flaming red, mouth-blown, carafe with a capacity of 125 cl. In addition to the normal Iittala stamp the carafes also have The special Anniversary Stamp. Absolutely fab!

Thanks for the info about the red Carafe.

Found it doing image searches on the web, but sadly a year too late.

Best wishes
