Set of six clear glass dessert bowls from the Merja series, designed by Tamara Aladin for Riihimäki glassworks between 1974 and 1976.
The bowls have a round open form with slightly flaring sides and a low foot. The inner base is decorated with concentric rings of raised oval patterns that create a textured, reflective effect. This design detail makes the bowls both practical and decorative, catching the light in use.
