The Story
Designed by Finnish glass artist Nanny Still, the T/335 was produced by Riihimäen Lasi from 1950 to 1966. Made in blue-green glass, it reflects Still's talent for bringing character and elegance to functional tableware. The set combines a tall, slender pitcher with six small stemmed glasses. The rich turquoise-green glass gives the pieces a distinctive presence, while the rotation-blown technique adds a sense of lightness and subtle variation to the glass. Still's T/335 is a fine example of her ability to turn everyday objects into carefully considered pieces of design. It captures the clarity and simplicity that define much of Finnish glassware from the mid-20th century. A distinctive piece for collectors of Nanny Still and Finnish glass design.
