Description
The Essence glasses have become a true demonstration of thoughtful design. Standing next to each other, they create a wonderful sense of balance. This is due to the fact that the stem and base of each glass are the same size, while the tumblers share similar proportions. They are easy to grasp and handle, and we suspect they make fine wines even more enjoyable.

“Designed for festive people, people who love wine…” - Essence Plus Glasses for Iittala, 2013
Alfredo Häberli was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He moved to Switzerland in 1977 and graduated with distinction in Industrial Design in Zurich. Today, he is an internationally established designer based in Zurich and is working for some of the leading companies of the international design industry such as Camper, Georg Jensen, Iittala, Kvadrat, Luceplan, and Vitra. He manages to unite tradition with innovation and his work is strongly influenced by his early childhood in Argentina as well as his curiousness and studies in everyday life. The results are works with a strong expression and emotionality.
