Vintage “Luna” glass set designed by Finnish designer Kaj Franck. Made at Iittala Glassworks in the 1970s - 1980s. Complete set of six pieces.
Height is 9 cm, Diameter is 7 cm. Very good vintage condition - some traces of use consistent with the age of the items.
The form is minimal yet robust. It has a slightly thickened base, giving it a low center of gravity and a satisfying weight in the hand like a tactile anchor.
This glass suits those who appreciate Scandinavian modernism with a utilitarian soul - ideal for someone who values clarity, durability and elegance over decoration. It fits equally well in a design-conscious home or a thoughtful, minimalist table setting.
Why buy Kaj Franck's design pieces?
He was a revolutionary in Art glass and tableware design.
In the early 1950s, Franck refused lush decorating of the items in favor of clean lines, shapes, interesting colors and textures, thus, becoming one of the founders of mid-20th century modernist design in the Nordics.
