This offering features a set of two Mariskooli bowls, an iconic design from the Finnish glassworks, Iittala. The distinctive silhouette, with its fluted bowl and scalloped rim raised on a sturdy pedestal, has made the Mariskooli a celebrated piece of Scandinavian tableware since its introduction. Crafted from pressed glass, these bowls showcase a vibrant and uniform pink colour throughout the material. The design is characterized by its intricate detailing, from the vertical ribbing on the bowl to the decorative elements on the stem and circular base. Originally designed by Maija Isola in 1965, the Mariskooli is a testament to the enduring appeal of Finnish design and Iittala's manufacturing expertise. The set is presented in great condition, with the glass retaining its original clarity and lustre. The structure of both bowls is sound, and they have been well-maintained, showing only minimal indications of previous ownership. The colour remains consistent and bright across both pieces. These versatile bowls are suitable for serving desserts or snacks, or they can be used as purely decorative objects to hold small treasures or stand alone. Their cheerful colour and classic form make them a fitting addition to a variety of interior styles, from modern and Scandinavian to more eclectic settings.
